An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-24893 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Stars Rating. 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-2021-24893/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24893/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-24893","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24893/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-24893","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pf4x-fwwq-h7vv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause a Denial of Service in the comments section by submitting long integer ratings in the Stars Rating WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"stars_rating","vendor":"stars_rating_project"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"},{"id":"CWE-400","name":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption"}],"description":"The Stars Rating WordPress plugin before 3.5.1 does not validate the submitted rating, allowing submission of long integer, causing a Denial of Service in the comments section, or pending comment dashboard depending if the user sent it as unauthenticated or authenticated.","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":"Stars Rating \u003c 3.5.1 - Comments Denial of Service","id":"CVE-2021-24893","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Reviews Plus \u003c 1.2.14 - Subscriber+ Reviews DoS","id":"CVE-2021-24894"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Advanced Forms \u003c 1.6.9 - Subscriber+ Arbitrary User Email Address Update via IDOR","id":"CVE-2021-24892"},"products":["Stars Rating"],"published":"2022-01-03","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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Attackers can cause a Denial of Service in the comments section by submitting long integer ratings in the Stars Rating WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24893/"}
