CVE-2024-21749
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 · uneditedCross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Atakan Au 1 click disable all.This issue affects 1 click disable all: from n/a through 1.0.1.
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 confidenceCross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the '1 click disable all' WordPress plugin (versions up to 1.0.1). Attackers can trick authenticated administrators into performing unintended actions (likely disabling all site functionality) by luring them to visit malicious pages that trigger forged requests.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify plugin installation and versionNavigate to WordPress admin dashboard > Plugins > Installed Plugins and locate 'Atakanau Click Disable All'. Check the version number displayed under the plugin name.Affected if Plugin version is 1.0.1 or lower (the vulnerable version range is <= 1.0.1)
-
Identify plugin admin interfaceAccess the WordPress admin menu to find the plugin's settings page (typically under Settings or a custom menu item named after the plugin).Affected if Plugin is installed and activated, exposing its admin interface to authenticated administrators
-
Inspect form actions for missing nonce fieldsView the source code of the plugin's admin page(s). Look for any HTML forms that perform state-changing actions (such as disabling site functionality). Check whether each form includes a nonce field (wp_nonce_field) for CSRF protection.Affected if Forms handling state-changing actions lack nonce token fields, indicating missing CSRF protection
-
Check AJAX handlers for nonce verificationExamine the plugin's PHP source code for AJAX action handlers (wp_ajax_* hooks). Verify whether each handler calls wp_verify_nonce or check_admin_referer before processing requests.Affected if AJAX handlers process requests without verifying nonce tokens, allowing forged requests to execute
-
Review action processing logicLocate the plugin's main PHP file and any files handling the 'disable all' functionality. Trace the code path from form submission to action execution to identify whether any CSRF validation occurs.Affected if The plugin processes the 'disable all' action without validating request origin or authenticity
You are affected if the 'Atakanau Click Disable All' plugin (version 1.0.1 or lower) is installed and its forms or AJAX handlers lack nonce verification for state-changing actions.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataImplement anti-CSRF tokens (nonces) on all state-changing forms and AJAX actions, validate these nonces on the server side, and set SameSite attribute on session cookies.
