Vulnerability Overview

The Radio Station by netmix® – Manage and play your Show Schedule in WordPress! plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 2.5.12. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on a function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to perform an unauthorized action 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 Radio Station by netmix® <= 2.5.12 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 Radio Station by netmix® the fix is 2.5.13: builds <= 2.5.12 are affected, anything from 2.5.13 onward is not.

Remediation

Update to version 2.5.13, or a newer patched version

How does WordSec protect against this?

The attempt arrives as an ordinary request to Radio Station by netmix®: WordSec's web application firewall inspects request payloads before WordPress loads them. None of that substitutes for the fix: Radio Station by netmix® 2.5.13 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
