Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Aboobacker. AB Google Map Travel ab-google-map-travel allows Cross Site Request Forgery.This issue affects AB Google Map Travel : from n/a through <= 4.6.

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

This is a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the AB Google Map Travel plugin. The plugin lacks anti-CSRF token validation on its forms and state-changing actions, allowing attackers to trick authenticated administrators into performing unintended operations (such as modifying map settings or configurations).

MitigationImplement WordPress nonces on all forms and AJAX actions within the plugin, and validate these nonces on the server side before processing any state-changing 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 checks

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

  1. Confirm plugin installation and activation
    Navigate to WordPress Admin > Plugins and verify AB Google Map Travel is installed and active
    Affected if Plugin is installed and active in WordPress
  2. Identify installed plugin version
    Check the plugin header in the main plugin file (typically wp-content/plugins/ab-google-map-travel/*.php) for the 'Version' comment, or view the plugin in the WordPress plugin repository
    Affected if Installed version falls within the vulnerable version range (if known) or no version-specific patch has been applied
  3. Inspect plugin forms for nonce fields
    Open the main plugin PHP files and search for form declarations (e.g., '<form') and check if they include wp_nonce_field() or similar nonce creation functions
    Affected if Forms lack _wpnonce or _wpnonce field parameters in their HTML output
  4. Verify AJAX action nonce validation
    Search plugin PHP files for add_action('wp_ajax_') calls and examine if the corresponding handlers call check_ajax_referer() or wp_verify_nonce() before processing
    Affected if AJAX handlers process requests without verifying nonce tokens
  5. Check state-changing admin actions
    Review plugin code for any admin action hooks (admin_post_, wp_ajax_) that modify plugin settings or data and verify if they perform nonce validation
    Affected if State-changing endpoints accept requests without CSRF token verification

The environment is affected if the AB Google Map Travel plugin is active and its forms or AJAX/state-changing actions lack proper nonce validation to prevent CSRF attacks.
