An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-33970 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Biplob018 Shortcode Addons (WordPress plugin). 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-2022-33970/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-33970/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-33970","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-33970/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-33970","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5cvc-6x68-h8qf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can modify WordPress options due to missing authorization checks in the Shortcode Addons plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"shortcode_addons","vendor":"oxilab"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"Authenticated WordPress Options Change vulnerability in Biplob018 Shortcode Addons plugin \u003c= 3.1.2 at WordPress.","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":"WordPress Shortcode Addons plugin \u003c= 3.1.2 - Authenticated WordPress Options Change vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-33970","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Auth bypass in Machine automation controller NJ series, Machine automation controller NX series, Automation software 'Sysmac Studio', and Programmable Terminal (PT) NA series","id":"CVE-2022-33971"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Flipbox plugin \u003c= 2.6.0 - Authenticated WordPress Options Change vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-33969"},"products":["Shortcode Addons (WordPress plugin)"],"published":"2022-07-27","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"WordPress Shortcode Addons plugin \u003c= 3.0.2 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary Option Update vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-34487","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-07-21"},{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"WordPress Shortcode Addons plugin \u003c= 3.2.5 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-37121","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-22"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["Biplob018"]},"summary":"Authenticated users can modify WordPress options due to missing authorization checks in the Shortcode Addons plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-33970/"}
