Description

The Latest Tabs plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.5.

This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to modify plugin settings via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2025-14999 identifies a CSRF vulnerability in the Latest Tabs WordPress plugin (versions up to 1.5) due to improper or missing nonce validation on the settings update handler within admin-page.php. This allows attackers to perform unauthorized changes to plugin settings by leveraging the trust of an authenticated administrator who is tricked into executing a crafted request. The vulnerability is network exploitable without privileges but requires user interaction (UI:R). It impacts the integrity of the plugin settings but does not affect confidentiality or availability.

Potential Impact

An attacker can cause unauthorized changes to the plugin settings by exploiting the CSRF vulnerability if an administrator is tricked into clicking a malicious link. This impacts the integrity of the plugin configuration but does not directly compromise confidentiality or availability. No known active exploits have been reported.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, administrators should exercise caution when clicking links and consider restricting administrative access or using additional CSRF protections at the site level.
