What to do about this

Patch promptly The consequence is significant even where an attacker needs a foothold first.

Fix it

Update Wp Libre Form to the latest available version.

Where the vendor has not published a fix yet, disable the plugin until they do.

Cannot update today? Restrict REST API in Hack Halt Pro blocks this class of attack before WordPress processes the request.

Require authentication for REST namespaces that do not need to be public, so the API cannot be used to enumerate content and accounts.
