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 confidence

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Fla-shop.Com HTML5 Maps plugin versions 1.7.1.4 and below allows attackers to induce authenticated users to perform unintended state-changing actions via crafted requests.

MitigationImplement anti-CSRF tokens on all state-changing operations and validate Origin/Referer headers to prevent cross-site request forgery attacks.

Verify against the referenced sources before acting — the references below are authoritative for this CVE, this summary is not.

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. Identify the installed version of Fla Shop Html5 Maps
    Locate the plugin file (typically in the plugin directory or version file such as plugin.php, config.php, or a changelog/readme file) and read the version number. Search for strings like 'Version:', 'version', or check the plugin header in the main PHP file.
    Affected if The displayed version is 1.7.1.4 or lower.
  2. Check for admin/dashboard access
    Verify if you have access to the plugin's administrative interface or settings panel where state-changing operations (such as map configuration changes, user management, or data exports) can be performed.
    Affected if You have authenticated access to state-changing plugin features.
  3. Inspect state-changing forms for anti-CSRF tokens
    View the HTML source of forms that perform state-changing actions (e.g., settings updates, map edits, data modifications). Look for hidden input fields containing tokens (such as 'csrf_token', 'nonce', 'token', '_wpnonce', or similar) within the <form> tags.
    Affected if State-changing forms lack anti-CSRF token fields, or tokens are missing from POST/PUT requests.
  4. Verify Origin or Referer header validation
    Intercept a state-changing request using browser developer tools or a proxy. Check if the server validates the Origin or Referer header and rejects requests from unexpected domains.
    Affected if The server accepts state-changing requests without validating Origin/Referer headers, or these headers are not checked server-side.

You are affected if the installed plugin version is 1.7.1.4 or lower AND state-changing operations lack anti-CSRF token validation and Origin/Referer header checks.
