An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, 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-2022-4226 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Simple Basic Contact Form. 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-2022-4226/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-4226/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-4226","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-4226/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-4226","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pgv2-pwvq-76wq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Admins can inject malicious scripts via unsanitized settings in the Simple Basic Contact Form plugin, bypassing unfiltered_html restrictions in multisite setups.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"simple_basic_contact_form","vendor":"wpkube"}],"cvss":{"score":4.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"The Simple Basic Contact Form WordPress plugin before 20221201 does not sanitise and escape some of its settings, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup).","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Simple Basic Contact Form \u003c 20221201 - Admin+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2022-4226","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Booster for WooCommerce - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2022-4227"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"CODESYS: Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere in CODESYS V3","id":"CVE-2022-4224"},"products":["Simple Basic Contact Form"],"published":"2022-12-26","related":[{"cvss_score":4.8,"headline":"Simple Basic Contact Form \u003c 20250114 - Admin+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2024-12716","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-15"}],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-04-14","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Admins can inject malicious scripts via unsanitized settings in the Simple Basic Contact Form plugin, bypassing unfiltered_html restrictions in multisite setups.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-4226/"}
