Attack profile from CVSS 3.1 · CISA ADP. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-352.

Summary

The Media Library Assistant WordPress plugin before 3.42 does not consistently validate its CSRF nonce on the Media Library bulk-action handler, checking it only when the field is present (CWE-352). A forged request that omits the field can make a logged-in user with the Author role or above trash or delete attachments, and user interaction is required. A public exploit is linked in the references.
