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-2022-2599 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Anti-Malware Security and Brute-Force Firewall. 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-2022-2599/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-2599/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-2599","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-2599/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-2599","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6c8f-q735-wjp5"],"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":"Attackers can inject malicious scripts into the admin dashboard via unsanitized parameters, potentially compromising administrator sessions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"anti-malware_security_and_brute-force_firewall","vendor":"anti-malware_security_and_brute-force_firewall_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 Anti-Malware Security and Brute-Force Firewall WordPress plugin before 4.21.83 does not sanitise and escape some parameters before outputting them back in an admin dashboard, leading to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","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-2022-2599.yaml","stars":null,"title":"WordPress Anti-Malware Security and Brute-Force Firewall \u003c4.21.83 - Cross-Site Scripting"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Anti-Malware Security and Brute-Force Firewall \u003c 4.21.83 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2022-2599","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Auto-hyperlink URLs \u003c= 5.4.1 - Tab Nabbing","id":"CVE-2022-2600"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Out-of-bounds Write to API in vim/vim","id":"CVE-2022-2598"},"products":["Anti-Malware Security and Brute-Force Firewall"],"published":"2022-08-29","related":[{"cvss_score":4.8,"headline":"Anti-Malware Security and Brute-Force Firewall \u003c 4.20.94 - Admin+ Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-25101","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-21"}],"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 inject malicious scripts into the admin dashboard via unsanitized parameters, potentially compromising administrator sessions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-2599/"}
