An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-0816 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Formidable Forms. 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-2023-0816/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-0816/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-0816","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-0816/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-0816","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-m9ch-6hh2-gc9w"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can spoof IP addresses via untrusted headers to bypass anti-spam protections in the Formidable Forms WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"formidable_form_builder","vendor":"strategy11"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-290","name":"Authentication Bypass by Spoofing"}],"description":"The Formidable Forms WordPress plugin before 6.1 uses several potentially untrusted headers to determine the IP address of the client, leading to IP Address spoofing and bypass of anti-spam protections.","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":"Formidable Forms \u003c 6.1 - IP Spoofing","id":"CVE-2023-0816","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Buffer Over-read in gpac/gpac","id":"CVE-2023-0817"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Plaintext Password Present in the Web logs","id":"CVE-2023-0815"},"products":["Formidable Forms"],"published":"2023-03-27","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-15780","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-29"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Formidable Form Builder \u003c 4.09.05 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-24884","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-10-25"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"Formidable Form Builder \u003c 2.05.03 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2017-20192","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-16"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"WordPress Formidable Forms Plugin \u003c= 5.5.6 is vulnerable to Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF)","id":"CVE-2023-24419","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-28"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Formidable Forms \u003c= 6.7 - HTML Injection","id":"CVE-2023-6830","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-01-09"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"Formidable Form Builder \u003c 2.05.03 - Unauthenticated Information Disclosure","id":"CVE-2017-20194","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-16"}],"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":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-19","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Attackers can spoof IP addresses via untrusted headers to bypass anti-spam protections in the Formidable Forms WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-0816/"}
