Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in jotis Blue Captcha Plugin up to 2.0.1 on WordPress. This vulnerability affects the function blcap_uninstall of the component Setting Handler. The manipulation 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 Blue Captcha plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to and including 2.0.1. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the main admin panel (blcap_main_page) and on the Hall of Shame and Log subpages, which accept a 'blcap_action' / 'action' parameter from $_REQUEST and perform destructive operations (plugin uninstall via blcap_uninstall(), log deletion via blcap_delete_logs(), Hall of Shame deletion via blcap_delete_ip_db(), and adding IPs to the banned list via update_option('blcap_settings')) with no wp_verify_nonce(), check_admin_referer(), or check_ajax_referer() calls anywhere in the codebase. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to uninstall the plugin, delete audit logs, remove Hall of Shame entries, and add arbitrary IP addresses to the block list via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

The weakness was published by Kamil Królikowski. The advisory is available at wordfence.com. This vulnerability was named CVE-2026-10552 since 06/01/2026. The exploitation appears to be easy.
