Technical details
The OpenAI Chatbot for WordPress – Helper plugin suffers from a missing authorization vulnerability (CWE-862) in its handling of content management requests. Because the affected component fails to verify the identity or permissions of the requester, an unauthenticated remote attacker can send specially crafted requests to delete arbitrary content from the WordPress site, such as posts, pages, or media. The attack is performed over the network without requiring user interaction. As of the advisory date, no official patch has been released, and users are advised to seek mitigation through security rules or by disabling the plugin.
