Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceThis is a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the Soflyy Oxygen Builder WordPress plugin affecting versions 4.4 and earlier. CSRF attacks trick authenticated users into unknowingly submitting malicious requests to the application, potentially allowing attackers to perform unauthorized actions with the privileges of the logged-in user.
