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 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.

MitigationImplement 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.

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 plugin installation and version
    Navigate 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)
  2. Identify plugin admin interface
    Access 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
  3. Inspect form actions for missing nonce fields
    View 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
  4. Check AJAX handlers for nonce verification
    Examine 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
  5. Review action processing logic
    Locate 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.
