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-2021-24278 exists.\n\nAffected product: Query Solutions Redirection for Contact Form 7. 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-2021-24278/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24278/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-24278","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24278/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-24278","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8xwc-4w4g-wpqp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can generate valid nonces for any WordPress action, bypassing security checks in the Redirection for Contact Form 7 plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"redirection_for_contact_form_7","vendor":"querysol"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-863","name":"Incorrect Authorization"}],"description":"In the Redirection for Contact Form 7 WordPress plugin before 2.3.4, unauthenticated users can use the wpcf7r_get_nonce AJAX action to retrieve a valid nonce for any WordPress action/function.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":null,"kind":"nuclei","ref":"http/cves/2021/CVE-2021-24278.yaml","stars":null,"title":"WordPress Contact Form 7 \u003c2.3.4 - Arbitrary Nonce Generation"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Redirection for Contact Form 7 \u003c 2.3.4 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary Nonce Generation","id":"CVE-2021-24278","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Redirection for Contact Form 7 \u003c 2.3.4 - Authenticated Arbitrary Plugin Installation","id":"CVE-2021-24279"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"RSS for Yandex Turbo \u003c 1.30 - Authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2021-24277"},"products":["Redirection for Contact Form 7"],"published":"2021-05-14","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Redirection for Contact Form 7 \u003c 2.3.4 - Authenticated PHP Object Injection","id":"CVE-2021-24280","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-14"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Redirection for Contact Form 7 \u003c 2.3.4 - Authenticated Arbitrary Plugin Installation","id":"CVE-2021-24279","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-14"},{"cvss_score":6.3,"headline":"Redirection for Contact Form 7 \u003c 2.3.4 - Unprotected AJAX Actions","id":"CVE-2021-24282","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-14"},{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Redirection for Contact Form 7 \u003c 2.3.4 - Authenticated Arbitrary Post Deletion","id":"CVE-2021-24281","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-14"}],"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":"MIT","name":"Nuclei templates"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["Query Solutions"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can generate valid nonces for any WordPress action, bypassing security checks in the Redirection for Contact Form 7 plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24278/"}
