CVE-2023-7048: My Sticky Bar <= 2.6.6 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to Sensitive Information Exposure

The My Sticky Bar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 2.6.6. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation in mystickymenu-contact-leads.php. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to trigger the export of a CSV file containing contact leads via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link. Because the CSV file is exported to a public location, it can be downloaded during a very short window of time before it is automatically deleted by the export function.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

A WordPress site using My Sticky Bar up to version 2.6.6 could expose contact lead data if an administrator is tricked into triggering a forged request. The exported CSV is briefly placed in a public location before automatic deletion, limiting but not removing confidentiality risk.

Executive priority

Treat this as a low-priority confidentiality issue unless the site stores sensitive leads or has many WordPress administrators. Remediate through normal plugin maintenance, but do not defer indefinitely on public-facing lead collection sites.

Technical view

CVE-2023-7048 is a CSRF issue in mystickymenu-contact-leads.php caused by missing or incorrect nonce validation. An unauthenticated attacker needs administrator interaction to trigger contact-lead CSV export. Impact is limited information disclosure; no integrity or availability impact is described.

Likely exposure

Exposure is limited to WordPress installations running My Sticky Bar, formerly myStickymenu, in versions up to and including 2.6.6 with contact leads present.

Exploitation context

The CVE is not listed as KEV, and the provided sources do not state active exploitation. Successful abuse requires tricking a site administrator into an action, then retrieving the CSV during a short public availability window.

Researcher notes

The main uncertainty is patch mapping: the bundle cites a WordPress Trac changeset but does not explicitly name a fixed version. Validation should stay focused on version inventory, CSRF nonce coverage, and whether public CSV export behavior remains reachable.

Mitigation direction

  • Inventory WordPress sites using My Sticky Bar or myStickymenu.
  • Check installed plugin versions and prioritize versions up to 2.6.6.
  • Review vendor or WordPress plugin guidance for the fixed release.
  • Apply the vendor-supported update when available.
  • Restrict administrator browsing and link handling on production WordPress sessions.
  • Review exposed contact lead data retention and collection necessity.

Validation and detection

  • Confirm whether My Sticky Bar is installed on each WordPress site.
  • Record plugin version and compare it to 2.6.6 or earlier.
  • Review plugin changelog or WordPress Trac changeset 3016780.
  • Check whether contact lead exports or public CSV artifacts are logged.
  • Verify administrators have CSRF-aware operational procedures.
