An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-1583 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown External Links in New Window / New Tab. 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-2022-1583/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-1583/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-1583","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-1583/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-1583","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fh98-fx6f-2pf6"],"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":"The WordPress plugin fails to nullify window.opener, allowing attackers to hijack the original tab via tabnabbing.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"external_links_in_new_window_\\/_new_tab","vendor":"webfactoryltd"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-1022","name":"Use of Web Link to Untrusted Target with window.opener Access"}],"description":"The External Links in New Window / New Tab WordPress plugin before 1.43 does not ensure window.opener is set to \"null\" when links to external sites are clicked, which may enable tabnabbing attacks to occur.","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":"External Links in New Window / New Tab \u003c 1.43 - Tabnabbing","id":"CVE-2022-1583","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"other","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Reflected XSS in microweber/microweber","id":"CVE-2022-1584"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"External Links in New Window / New Tab \u003c 1.43 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2022-1582"},"products":["External Links in New Window / New Tab"],"published":"2022-05-30","related":[{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"External Links in New Window / New Tab \u003c 1.43 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2022-1582","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-30"}],"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":"The WordPress plugin fails to nullify window.opener, allowing attackers to hijack the original tab via tabnabbing.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-1583/"}
