Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-24289 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Store Locator Plus for 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-2021-24289/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24289/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-24289","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24289/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-24289","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-m38j-h682-h2cp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can escalate privileges to administrator by updating user metadata in the Store Locator Plus WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"store_locator_plus","vendor":"de-baat"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-269","name":"Improper Privilege Management"}],"description":"There is functionality in the Store Locator Plus for WordPress plugin through 5.5.14 that made it possible for authenticated users to update their user meta data to become an administrator on any site using the plugin.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Store Locator Plus \u003c= 5.5.14 - Authenticated Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2021-24289","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Store Locator Plus \u003c= 5.5.15 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2021-24290"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"AcyMailing \u003c 7.5.0 - Unauthenticated Open Redirect","id":"CVE-2021-24288"},"products":["Store Locator Plus for WordPress"],"published":"2021-05-17","related":[{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Store Locator Plus \u003c= 5.5.15 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2021-24290","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-17"}],"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":"2024-08-03","vendors":["Store Locator Plus"]},"summary":"Authenticated users can escalate privileges to administrator by updating user metadata in the Store Locator Plus WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24289/"}
