At a glance

CVE-2026-6075 is a high-severity Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the Media Library Assistant WordPress plugin, affecting versions <= 3.35. It carries a CVSS score of 8.1 (reachable over the network; low attack complexity; high integrity, availability impact). Exploitation requires no authentication. The issue is fixed in version 3.36; sites on affected versions should update now. Disclosed May 2026, reported by AlexHenry.

Vulnerability Overview

The Media Library Assistant plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 3.35 This is due to missing nonce verification on the bulk action handlers in the settings tab handlers. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to trick an administrator into performing bulk delete, edit, or purge operations on plugin settings and attachment metadata via a forged request.

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. A successful exploit has high impact on integrity, availability.

CWE-352: Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)

Reaching this weakness in Media Library Assistant <= 3.35 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 Media Library Assistant the fix is 3.36: builds <= 3.35 are affected, anything from 3.36 onward is not.

Remediation

Update to version 3.36, or a newer patched version

How does WordSec protect against this?

The attempt arrives as an ordinary request to Media Library Assistant: WordSec's web application firewall inspects request payloads before WordPress loads them. None of that substitutes for the fix: Media Library Assistant 3.36 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
