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-2013-2010 exists.\n\nAffected product: W3 Total Cache Plugin. 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-2013-2010/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-2010/index.md)","id":"CVE-2013-2010","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-2010/index.md","name":"CVE-2013-2010","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p4q6-rxpw-36xr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary PHP code on sites using the W3 Total Cache WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"wp_super_cache","vendor":"automattic"},{"product":"w3_total_cache","vendor":"boldgrid"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-74","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component"}],"description":"WordPress W3 Total Cache Plugin 0.9.2.8 has a Remote PHP Code Execution Vulnerability","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2013-04-17","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":0,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2013-04-17","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/unix/webapp/wp_total_cache_exec","stars":null,"title":"WordPress W3 Total Cache PHP Code Execution"},{"date":"2013-05-01","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"25137","stars":null,"title":"WordPress Plugin W3 Total Cache - PHP Code Execution (Metasploit)"},{"date":"2025-03-11T14:32:20Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/spyata123/w3-total-cache-cve-2013-2010","stars":0,"title":"Remote code execution running on w3 total cache cve 2013-2010"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Code injection in W3 Total Cache Plugin","id":"CVE-2013-2010","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2013"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Code injection in Super Cache Plugin","id":"CVE-2013-2011"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Code injection in WP Super Cache Plugin","id":"CVE-2013-2009"},"products":["W3 Total Cache Plugin"],"published":"2020-02-12","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code injection in WP Super Cache Plugin","id":"CVE-2013-2009","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-02-07"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"WP Super Cache \u003c 1.7.3 - Authenticated Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2021-24312","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-06-01"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"WP Super Cache \u003c 1.7.2 - Authenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE)","id":"CVE-2021-24209","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-04-05"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Super Cache Plugin","id":"CVE-2013-2008","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-02-07"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"WP Super Cache \u003c 1.7.3 - Authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2021-24329","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-06-01"}],"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":"BSD-3-Clause","name":"Metasploit"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["W3 Total Cache Plugin authors"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary PHP code on sites using the W3 Total Cache WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-2010/"}
