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-2022-40193 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: BriniA Awesome Filterable Portfolio (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-2022-40193/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40193/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-40193","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40193/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-40193","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gm96-5f79-f6q3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can inject malicious scripts into the Awesome Filterable Portfolio plugin, potentially compromising user sessions and site integrity.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"awesome_filterable_portfolio","vendor":"brinidesigner"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","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":"Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Awesome Filterable Portfolio plugin \u003c= 1.9.7 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":"Cross-site scripting in Awesome Filterable Portfolio (WordPress plugin)","id":"CVE-2022-40193","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Customer Reviews for WooCommerce plugin \u003c= 5.3.5 - Sensitive Information Disclosure vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-40194"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress wpForo Forum plugin \u003c= 2.0.9 - Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-40192"},"products":["Awesome Filterable Portfolio (WordPress plugin)"],"published":"2022-09-23","related":[{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-9461","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-10-10"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Awesome Filterable Portfolio plugin \u003c= 1.9.7 - Unauthenticated Plugin Settings Change vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-35238","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-09-23"}],"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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["BriniA"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can inject malicious scripts into the Awesome Filterable Portfolio plugin, potentially compromising user sessions and site integrity.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40193/"}
