Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Joseph C Dolson My Tickets plugin <= 1.9.10 versions.

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 · high confidence

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the My Tickets WordPress plugin allows remote attackers to trick authenticated administrators into unknowingly submitting malicious requests, exploiting the lack of anti-CSRF token validation on sensitive operations.

MitigationUpdate My Tickets plugin to version greater than 1.9.10; additionally implement anti-CSRF nonce tokens on all state-changing operations and configure SameSite attributes on authentication cookies.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify My Tickets plugin is installed
    Check the WordPress plugins directory or access wp-admin > Plugins to confirm My Tickets is active
    Affected if My Tickets plugin is installed and active
  2. Determine installed My Tickets version
    Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins > My Tickets and read the version number from the plugin header, or check the version in the plugin's main PHP file (mt-functions.php or similar)
    Affected if Version is below 1.9.11
  3. Inspect plugin for anti-CSRF nonce implementation
    Examine the plugin PHP files for state-changing operations (form submissions, admin actions) and verify nonce validation is present using functions like wp_verify_nonce, check_admin_referer, or wp_nonce_field
    Affected if Sensitive admin actions lack nonce token validation

If the My Tickets plugin version is below 1.9.11 and sensitive operations lack CSRF token validation, the environment is affected by this vulnerability.
