CVE-2024-9847Network attack vector

Forced plugin changes via unvalidated authenticated requests

Published Mar 20, 2025 · Updated Mar 20, 2025

Cross-site request forgery in FlatPress before 1.4.dev allows remote attackers to enable or disable plugins via a crafted link. The plugin-management action trusts the victim's authenticated request and changes plugin state without a per-request anti-CSRF check. An authenticated administrator must open attacker-controlled content, after which plugins can be activated or deactivated under that session.
