An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2022-0653 exists.\n\nAffected product: Cozmoslabs Profile Builder – User Profile \u0026 User Registration Forms. 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-2022-0653/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-0653/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-0653","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-0653/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-0653","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-h98h-3vj4-grgq"],"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":"Attackers can inject arbitrary web scripts via the site_url parameter, executing code when users click crafted links.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[{"product":"profile_builder","vendor":"cozmoslabs"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"The Profile Builder – User Profile \u0026 User Registration Forms WordPress plugin is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting due to insufficient escaping and sanitization of the site_url parameter found in the ~/assets/misc/fallback-page.php file which allows attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts onto a pages that executes whenever a user clicks on a specially crafted link by an attacker.
