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-2022-2187 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Contact Form 7 Captcha. 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-2022-2187/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-2187/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-2187","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-2187/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-2187","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q9cc-mh38-x933"],"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 execute arbitrary scripts in victims' browsers via reflected XSS in the Contact Form 7 Captcha plugin.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"contact_form_7_captcha","vendor":"contact_form_7_captcha_project"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","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 Contact Form 7 Captcha WordPress plugin before 0.1.2 does not escape the $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] parameter before outputting it back in an attribute, which could lead to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting in old web browsers","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/2022/CVE-2022-2187.yaml","stars":null,"title":"WordPress Contact Form 7 Captcha \u003c0.1.2 - Cross-Site Scripting"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Contact Form 7 Captcha \u003c 0.1.2 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2022-2187","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"DXL Broker privilege escalation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-2188"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Simple Post Notes \u003c 1.7.6 - Admin+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2022-2186"},"products":["Contact Form 7 Captcha"],"published":"2022-07-17","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Contact Form 7 Captcha \u003c 0.0.9 - CSRF to Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2021-24565","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-23"}],"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":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary scripts in victims' browsers via reflected XSS in the Contact Form 7 Captcha plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-2187/"}
