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-2022-4442 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Custom Post Types and Custom Fields creator. 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-2022-4442/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-4442/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-4442","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-4442/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-4442","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wfcq-ffhc-rj2g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"High-privilege users can perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks in the Custom Post Types and Custom Fields creator WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"custom_post_types_and_custom_fields_creator","vendor":"cozmoslabs"}],"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 Custom Post Types and Custom Fields creator WordPress plugin before 2.3.3 does not sanitize 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":"WCK \u003c 2.3.3 - Admin+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2022-4442","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"BruteBank - WP Security \u0026 Firewall \u003c 1.9 - Settings Update via CSRF","id":"CVE-2022-4443"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege Escalation Vulnerability in Hitachi Storage Plug-in for VMware vCenter","id":"CVE-2022-4441"},"products":["Custom Post Types and Custom Fields creator"],"published":"2023-01-16","related":[],"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":"2025-04-04","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"High-privilege users can perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks in the Custom Post Types and Custom Fields creator WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-4442/"}
