CVE-2025-60115: CWE-352 Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) in instapagedev Instapage Plugin
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in instapagedev Instapage Plugin allows Cross Site Request Forgery. This issue affects Instapage Plugin: from n/a through 3.5.12.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-60115 is a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability identified in the Instapage Plugin developed by instapagedev, affecting versions up to and including 3.5.12. CSRF vulnerabilities allow an attacker to trick an authenticated user into submitting a forged HTTP request to a web application, potentially causing unintended actions without the user's consent. In this case, the vulnerability exists because the plugin does not adequately verify the origin or authenticity of requests that perform state-changing operations. The CVSS v3.1 base score of 4.3 (medium severity) reflects that the vulnerability can be exploited remotely over the network (AV:N) with low attack complexity (AC:L), no privileges required (PR:N), but requires user interaction (UI:R). The impact is limited to integrity (I:L), with no confidentiality or availability impact. There are no known exploits in the wild at the time of publication, and no patches have been linked yet. The vulnerability is categorized under CWE-352, which highlights weaknesses in anti-CSRF protections. Since the plugin is commonly used in WordPress environments to create landing pages and marketing campaigns, exploitation could allow attackers to manipulate plugin settings or content by leveraging authenticated users' sessions, potentially defacing pages or altering marketing data.
Potential Impact
For European organizations using the Instapage Plugin, this vulnerability poses a risk primarily to the integrity of their web content and marketing operations. Attackers could exploit the CSRF flaw to modify landing pages, redirect users, or inject malicious content, potentially damaging brand reputation and user trust. While the vulnerability does not directly compromise sensitive data confidentiality or system availability, unauthorized changes could lead to misinformation or phishing campaigns targeting customers. Organizations in sectors relying heavily on online marketing and customer engagement, such as retail, finance, and media, may face increased risks. Additionally, regulatory frameworks like GDPR emphasize data integrity and user trust, so any manipulation of web content could have compliance implications if it leads to user deception or data misuse.
Mitigation Recommendations
To mitigate this vulnerability, European organizations should implement the following specific measures: 1) Immediately monitor for updates or patches from instapagedev and apply them as soon as they become available. 2) Until patched, implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block suspicious CSRF attempts targeting the plugin's endpoints. 3) Enforce strict Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to limit the sources of executable scripts and reduce the risk of CSRF exploitation. 4) Review and harden user session management by ensuring that authentication tokens are tied to user sessions and that sensitive actions require explicit user confirmation. 5) Educate users and administrators about the risks of CSRF and encourage cautious behavior regarding unsolicited links or requests. 6) Conduct regular security audits of the WordPress environment and plugins to detect anomalous changes or unauthorized modifications. 7) Consider deploying multi-factor authentication (MFA) for administrative accounts to reduce the risk of session hijacking that could facilitate CSRF attacks.
