NVD · unedited
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Yaidier WN Flipbox Pro wn-flipbox-pro allows Reflected XSS.This issue affects WN Flipbox Pro: from n/a through <= 2.1.

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 confidence

A CSRF vulnerability in the Yaidier WN Flipbox Pro WordPress plugin (version <= 2.1) allows attackers to trick authenticated administrators into submitting malicious requests that trigger reflected XSS attacks, potentially leading to session hijacking or privilege escalation.

MitigationUpdate to the latest version of WN Flipbox Pro when available; otherwise implement anti-CSRF tokens on all plugin forms and verify Origin/Referer headers to block 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 checks

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

  1. Confirm plugin installation
    Check the WordPress plugins directory (wp-content/plugins/) for a folder named 'wn-flipbox-pro', 'wn-flipbox', or search for 'Yaidier' or 'flipbox' in plugin names. Alternatively, list installed plugins via WP-CLI: wp plugin list --format=csv
    Affected if The 'wn-flipbox-pro' or related flipbox plugin folder exists in the plugins directory
  2. Identify installed version
    Read the main plugin PHP file (usually in the plugin folder, named like flipbox.php or index.php) and look for the 'Version' header in the plugin comment block. In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and find the version listed for WN Flipbox Pro
    Affected if The reported version is 2.1 or lower, or no version is displayed (indicating an old unversioned release)
  3. Verify plugin is active
    Check if the plugin is enabled in WordPress admin under Plugins > Installed Plugins. The plugin should show as 'Active'. Using WP-CLI: wp plugin is-active flipbox (adjust slug as needed)
    Affected if The plugin status shows as Active
  4. Inspect admin forms for CSRF protection
    Locate PHP files handling plugin admin actions (check folders like includes/, admin/, or files containing form handling). Search for 'nonce' or '_wpnonce' in the code to determine if form submissions include anti-CSRF tokens. Use grep: grep -r 'nonce' /path/to/plugin/folder/
    Affected if Admin action files (especially those handling settings or user input) lack nonce verification code or do not call wp_verify_nonce()
  5. Check for reflected XSS sink usage
    Examine PHP files for use of echo, print, or similar output functions that directly reflect request parameters without sanitization. Search for $_GET, $_POST usage with output: grep -E '\$_GET|\$_POST' /path/to/plugin/folder/*.php and verify if those values are sanitized with esc_html(), esc_attr(), or similar before output
    Affected if Request parameters from $_GET or $_POST are output directly without sanitization, combined with no CSRF protection means the full attack chain is present

If the Yaidier WN Flipbox Pro plugin is installed, active, and at version 2.1 or lower without nonce/CSRF protection on admin forms, the environment is vulnerable to CVE-2025-58847.
