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 · unedited
Unauthenticated Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) in ApusListing <= 1.2.63 versions.

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

An unauthenticated Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability exists in ApusListing plugin/theme versions 1.2.63 and below. Attackers can trick authenticated users into submitting malicious requests without their consent, potentially allowing unauthorized actions such as modifying listings or configurations.

MitigationUpdate ApusListing to the latest version > 1.2.63 which should contain CSRF token validation. If no patch is available, consider disabling the plugin until a fix is released.

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 ApusListing is installed
    Check WordPress plugins directory for 'apuslisting' folder or check wp-admin > Plugins for ApusListing
    Affected if ApusListing plugin or theme is present in the WordPress installation
  2. Check installed version
    Look at the plugin version in header comment of main plugin file (apuslisting.php) or in WordPress admin plugin list
    Affected if Version is 1.2.63 or lower
  3. Inspect for anti-CSRF nonce implementation
    Search plugin source code for 'wp_nonce_field', 'wp_nonce_url', 'check_admin_referer', or 'check_ajax_referer' calls on forms/actions that modify settings, create listings, or handle user roles
    Affected if No nonce verification found on state-changing actions or nonce checks are missing entirely
  4. Verify SameSite cookie attributes
    Inspect HTTP response headers for session cookies (wp-settings, wordpress_logged_in) and check if SameSite attribute is present and set to 'Lax' or 'Strict'
    Affected if SameSite attribute is missing or set to 'None' on session cookies

You are affected if ApusListing version 1.2.63 or below is installed and lacks nonce token validation on administrative 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.
