CVE-2026-6401
The Bottom Bar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to and including 0.1.7. This is due to missing nonce verification on the plugin's settings update forms handled in bottom-bar-admin.php. None of the three settings forms (main settings, sharing services, restore defaults) include a wp_nonce_field(), and the server-side processing code never calls check_admin_referer() or any equivalent nonce validation before processing POST data and calling update_option(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to trick a logged-in administrator into submitting a crafted request that updates plugin configuration options, such as changing the language, maximum post counts, or enabled sharing services.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N
- Puntuación base: 4.3
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.22%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 12
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026

"value": "El plugin Bottom Bar para WordPress es vulnerable a la falsificación de petición en sitios cruzados en todas las versiones hasta la 0.1.7 inclusive. Esto se debe a la falta de verificación de nonce en los formularios de actualización de configuración del plugin gestionados en bottom-bar-admin.PHP. Ninguno de los tres formularios de configuración (configuración principal, servicios para compartir, restaurar valores predeterminados) incluye un wp_nonce_field(), y el código de procesamiento del lado del servidor nunca llama a check_admin_referer() ni a ninguna validación de nonce equivalente antes de procesar los datos POST y llamar a update_option(). Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados engañen a un administrador con sesión iniciada para que envíe una petición manipulada que actualiza las opciones de configuración del plugin, como cambiar el idioma, el número máximo de publicaciones o los servicios para compartir habilitados."
