Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2012-3383 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Wordpress Wordpress. 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-2012-3383/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-3383/index.md)","id":"CVE-2012-3383","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-3383/index.md","name":"CVE-2012-3383","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2012-3383","GHSA-56vr-745r-v7wg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"WordPress CMS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated administrators or editors in multisite WordPress can bypass HTML filtering to execute cross-site scripting attacks.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"wordpress","vendor":"wordpress"}],"cvss":{"score":2.6,"severity":"low","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"The map_meta_cap function in wp-includes/capabilities.php in WordPress 3.4.x before 3.4.2, when the multisite feature is enabled, does not properly assign the unfiltered_html capability, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions and conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks by leveraging the Administrator or Editor role and composing crafted text.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-3383","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"wordpress:wordpress","products":["wordpress:wordpress"],"type":"xss","year":"2012"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-3384"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-3382"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2012-07-22","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"WordPress Core Interpretation Conflict","id":"CVE-2026-63030","kev_date_added":"2026-07-21","published":"2026-07-17"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"WordPress Core Remote File Inclusion","id":"CVE-2026-87902","kev_date_added":"2026-09-25","published":"2026-09-22"},{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"WordPress Core SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2026-60137","kev_date_added":"2026-07-21","published":"2026-07-17"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2399","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-04-21"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2400","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-04-21"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3122","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-08-10"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3125","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-08-10"}],"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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Authenticated administrators or editors in multisite WordPress can bypass HTML filtering to execute cross-site scripting attacks.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-3383/"}
