An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, 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-2023-0899 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Steveas WP Live Chat Shoutbox. 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-2023-0899/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-0899/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-0899","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-0899/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-0899","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jvcm-h57m-rqjp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can inject malicious scripts into the Shoutbox, potentially compromising admin accounts via stored XSS.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"wp_live_chat_shoutbox","vendor":"wp_live_chat_shoutbox_project"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"The Steveas WP Live Chat Shoutbox WordPress plugin through 1.4.2 does not sanitise and escape a parameter before outputting it back in the Shoutbox, leading to Stored Cross-Site Scripting which could be used against high privilege users such as admins.","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":"Steveas WP Live Chat Shoutbox \u003c= 1.4.2 - Unauthenticated Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2023-0899","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"AP Pricing Tables Lite \u003c= 1.1.6 - Admin+ SQLi","id":"CVE-2023-0900"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Uncontrolled Search Path Element in GE MiCOM S1 Agile","id":"CVE-2023-0898"},"products":["Steveas WP Live Chat Shoutbox"],"published":"2023-04-24","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Steveas WP Live Chat Shoutbox \u003c= 1.4.2 - Unauthenticated SQLi","id":"CVE-2023-1020","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-04-24"}],"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":"2025-02-04","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can inject malicious scripts into the Shoutbox, potentially compromising admin accounts via stored XSS.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-0899/"}
