Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in phkcorp2005 WP-Redirection Plugin up to 1.0.3 on WordPress. It has been declared as problematic. This vulnerability affects the function check_admin_referer of the component Setting Handler. The manipulation of the argument nonce with an unknown input leads to a cross-site request forgery vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-352. The web application does not, or can not, sufficiently verify whether a well-formed, valid, consistent request was intentionally provided by the user who submitted the request. As an impact it is known to affect integrity. CVE summarizes:

The WP-Redirection plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to and including 1.0.3. This is due to the absence of a nonce field in the admin settings form and the lack of any nonce verification (via check_admin_referer() or wp_verify_nonce()) in the displayWPRedirectionManagementPage() function before processing POST requests that add, edit, or delete URL redirection rules. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to trick a logged-in administrator into clicking a crafted link, causing the attacker to create, modify, or delete redirection records in the plugin's database table without the administrator's consent.

The weakness was presented by Muhammad Nur Ibnu Hubab. The advisory is shared for download at wordfence.com. This vulnerability was named CVE-2026-7562 since 04/30/2026.

Successful exploitation requires user interaction by the victim. There are known technical details, but no exploit is available.
