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

A Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the Rocket Media Library Mime Type WordPress plugin (versions up to 2.1.0) allows attackers to craft malicious requests that result in Stored XSS. The lack of CSRF protection enables authenticated administrators to unknowingly execute attacks that inject malicious scripts into the plugin's stored data, which then executes when viewed by other users.

MitigationImplement anti-CSRF tokens (nonces) on all state-changing actions and properly sanitize/encode all user-supplied input before storing and outputting content to prevent XSS.

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 Rocket Media Library Mime Type plugin is installed
    Log into WordPress admin panel and navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins. Look for 'Rocket Media Library Mime Type' in the list of installed plugins.
    Affected if The plugin appears in the installed plugins list
  2. Determine the installed plugin version
    In the plugins list, click on the plugin to view its details, or check the main plugin file in wp-content/plugins/ directory for the version header in the plugin comment block.
    Affected if The version is 2.1.0 or any version lower than 2.1.0
  3. Confirm the plugin is active
    In WordPress admin, check the Plugins page to see if Rocket Media Library Mime Type has an 'Active' status under the plugin name.
    Affected if The plugin shows as Active
  4. Identify state-changing plugin features
    Access the plugin settings page (usually under Settings or Media in WordPress admin) and note any features that store user-supplied data such as mime type configurations, custom file type definitions, or media settings.
    Affected if The plugin has settings pages that accept and store user input
  5. Check for CSRF protection on plugin actions
    Inspect page source code of the plugin settings pages. Look for hidden nonce fields (wpnonce) or CSRF tokens in all forms and AJAX requests. Check the plugin PHP files for presence of wp_verify_nonce or check_admin_referer calls before any database write operations.
    Affected if No nonce fields are found in forms and no nonce verification code exists in the plugin PHP files

A user is affected if the Rocket Media Library Mime Type plugin version 2.1.0 or lower is installed and active, and the plugin lacks CSRF token verification on its configuration forms that store user input.

Mitigation

Implement anti-CSRF tokens (nonces) on all state-changing actions and properly sanitize/encode all user-supplied input before storing and outputting content to prevent XSS.
