At a glance
CVE-2025-14354 is a medium-severity Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the Resource Library for Logged In Users WordPress plugin, affecting versions <= 1.5. It carries a CVSS score of 4.3 (reachable over the network; low attack complexity). Exploitation requires no authentication. The issue is fixed in version 1.6; sites on affected versions should update now. Disclosed December 2025, reported by Muhammad Nur Ibnu Hubab.
Vulnerability Overview
The Resource Library for Logged In Users plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.5. This is due to missing nonce validation on multiple administrative functions. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to perform various unauthorized actions including creating, editing, and deleting resources and categories via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
Technical Analysis
The vector marks this flaw as remotely reachable over the network, with low attack complexity — no special timing or configuration is needed, and no privileges on the target site.
CWE-352: Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
Reaching this weakness in Resource Library for Logged In Users <= 1.5 takes a caller who can reach the endpoint. Cross-site request forgery abuses the fact that browsers attach a victim's cookies to any request, so a state-changing action that only checks who you are, not whether you meant to act, can be triggered from another site.
An attacker who gets a logged-in user to load a crafted page can perform that action as them, with the impact scaling to whatever the victim's role is allowed to do. For Resource Library for Logged In Users the fix is 1.6: builds <= 1.5 are affected, anything from 1.6 onward is not.
Remediation
Update to version 1.6, or a newer patched version
How does WordSec protect against this?
The attempt arrives as an ordinary request to Resource Library for Logged In Users: WordSec's web application firewall inspects request payloads before WordPress loads them. None of that substitutes for the fix: Resource Library for Logged In Users 1.6 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
