Rate my Post – WP Rating System (WordPress plugin), published on 23 Sep 2022. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-40310 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Blaz K. Rate my Post – WP Rating System (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-2022-40310/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40310/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-40310","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40310/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-40310","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wgh8-h75r-c4qw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can exploit a race condition to arbitrarily increase or decrease post ratings in the WP Rating System plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"rate_my_post_-_wp_rating_system","vendor":"blazzdev"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-362","name":"Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization"}],"description":"Authenticated (subscriber+) Race Condition vulnerability in Rate my Post – WP Rating System plugin \u003c= 3.3.4 at WordPress allows attackers to increase/decrease votes.","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 Rate my Post – WP Rating System plugin \u003c= 3.3.4 - Race Condition vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-40310","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"race_condition","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Analytics Cat plugin \u003c= 1.0.9 - Authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-40311"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Apache Archiva prior to 2.2.9 allows an authenticated user to delete arbitrary directories","id":"CVE-2022-40309"},"products":["Rate my Post – WP Rating System (WordPress plugin)"],"published":"2022-09-23","related":[{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"WordPress Rate my Post – WP Rating System plugin \u003c= 3.3.4 - Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-40671","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":["Blaz K."]},"summary":"Authenticated attackers can exploit a race condition to arbitrarily increase or decrease post ratings in the WP Rating System plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40310/"}
