What is CVE-2025-11497?

The Advanced Database Cleaner plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to a Cross-Site Request Forgery attack due to inadequate nonce validation in the aDBc_prepare_elements_to_clean() function. This vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to manipulate the 'keep last' settings by crafting a malicious request that, if executed by a site administrator, can lead to unauthorized changes. Proper implementation of nonce checks is crucial to mitigate this risk and protect users from potential exploits.
