What is CVE-2024-3475?

The Sticky Buttons plugin for WordPress, prior to version 3.2.4, is susceptible to Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks due to a lack of verification in several bulk actions. This vulnerability enables unauthorized users to exploit the absence of CSRF checks, potentially leading logged-in administrators to execute unintended actions, such as the deletion of buttons, without their consent. Proper measures should be implemented to mitigate these risks.

Affected Version(s)

Sticky Buttons 0 < 3.2.4

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
