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-2022-38454 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Karim Salman Kraken.io Image Optimizer (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-2022-38454/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-38454/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-38454","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-38454/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-38454","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-c5x2-5cvx-r2ch"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can trick authenticated users into performing unintended actions in the Kraken.io Image Optimizer plugin.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"csrf"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"kraken.io_image_optimizer","vendor":"kraken"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-352","name":"Cross-Site Request Forgery"}],"description":"Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Kraken.io Image Optimizer plugin \u003c= 2.6.5 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 Kraken.io Image Optimizer plugin \u003c= 2.6.5 - Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-38454","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"csrf","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Ajax Search Lite Plugin \u003c= 4.10.3 is vulnerable to Sensitive Data Exposure","id":"CVE-2022-38456"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Contec Health CMS8000","id":"CVE-2022-38453"},"products":["Kraken.io Image Optimizer (WordPress plugin)"],"published":"2022-09-23","related":[{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Kraken.io Image Optimizer \u003c= 2.6.8 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Plugin Options Update","id":"CVE-2023-0619","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-01"}],"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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["Karim Salman"]},"summary":"Attackers can trick authenticated users into performing unintended actions in the Kraken.io Image Optimizer plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-38454/"}
