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-2022-44627 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: David Cole Simple SEO (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-2022-44627/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-44627/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-44627","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-44627/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-44627","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mm3v-9pfv-wfjx"],"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 users into creating or deleting sitemaps in the Simple SEO WordPress plugin via CSRF.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"csrf"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"simple_seo","vendor":"coleds"}],"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 David Cole Simple SEO plugin \u003c= 1.8.12 on WordPress allows attackers to create or delete sitemaps.","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 Simple SEO plugin \u003c= 1.8.12 - Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-44627","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 4ECPS Web Forms plugin \u003c= 0.2.17 - Auth.
