CVE-2024-0842 allows for a Denial of Service attack on WordPress sites using the Backuply plugin. The Backuply plugin, up to version 1.2.5, is vulnerable due to unrestricted access to the backuply/restore_ins.php file. Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability to flood the server with requests. This excessive load can exhaust server resources, leading to a service disruption. While the CVSS score is 7.5, indicating high severity, the SOCRadar Vulnerability Risk Score (SVRS) is 68, suggesting a lower, but still significant risk. Although below the critical threshold of 80, action should still be taken. The vulnerability is especially significant because it's remotely exploitable and does not require authentication. A successful attack results in website unavailability, causing potential business disruption and reputational damage. Mitigating this vulnerability is crucial to maintaining website stability and security.
