An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2009-2852 exists.\n\nAffected product: n/a. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-2852/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-2852/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-2852","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-2852/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-2852","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qw75-fm4f-23pq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary PHP code in WP-Syntax plugin if register_globals is enabled, requiring immediate plugin updates.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"wp-syntax","vendor":"ryan.mcgeary"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"WP-Syntax plugin 0.9.1 and earlier for Wordpress, with register_globals enabled, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via the test_filter[wp_head] array parameter to test/index.php, which is used in a call to the call_user_func_array function.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2009-08-27","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2009-08-27","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"9431","stars":null,"title":"WordPress Plugin WP-Syntax 0.9.1 - Remote Command Execution"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-2852","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-2853"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-2851"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-08-18","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary PHP code in WP-Syntax plugin if register_globals is enabled, requiring immediate plugin updates.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-2852/"}
