Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-2198 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown WPQA Builder. 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-2022-2198/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-2198/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-2198","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-2198/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-2198","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g3r5-hp64-fq8f"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated attacker can read other users' private messages by manipulating message IDs due to missing authorization checks in the WPQA Builder plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"wpqa_builder","vendor":"2code"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-639","name":"Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key"}],"description":"The WPQA Builder WordPress plugin before 5.7 which is a companion plugin to the Hilmer and Discy , does not check authorization before displaying private messages, allowing any logged in user to read other users private message using the message id, which can easily be brute forced.","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":"WPQA \u003c 5.7 - Subscriber+ Private Message Disclosure via IDOR","id":"CVE-2022-2198","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"ICSA-22-200-01 MiCODUS MV720 GPS tracker Cross-site Scripting","id":"CVE-2022-2199"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Exemys RME1","id":"CVE-2022-2197"},"products":["WPQA Builder"],"published":"2022-08-22","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"WPQA \u003c 6.1.1 - Arbitrary Category and Tag Follow/Unfollow via CSRF","id":"CVE-2024-2376","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-03"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"WPQA \u003c 5.9 - Follow/Unfollow via CSRF","id":"CVE-2022-3688","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-21"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"WPQA \u003c 5.4 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2022-1597","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-06-06"},{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"WPQA \u003c 6.1.1 - Contributor+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2024-2375","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-03"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"WPQA \u003c 5.2 - Subscriber+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Profile fields","id":"CVE-2022-1051","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-16"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"WPQA \u003c 5.5 - Unauthenticated Private Message Disclosure","id":"CVE-2022-1598","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-06-06"}],"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":"An authenticated attacker can read other users' private messages by manipulating message IDs due to missing authorization checks in the WPQA Builder plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-2198/"}
