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-2023-1435 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Ajax Search Pro. 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-2023-1435/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-1435/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-1435","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-1435/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-1435","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-854f-g2rv-24mj"],"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":"Reflected XSS in Ajax Search Lite Pro allows attackers to execute scripts against admin users, potentially leading to account takeover.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"ajax_search","vendor":"wp-dreams"}],"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 Ajax Search Pro WordPress plugin before 4.26.2 does not sanitise and escape various parameters before outputting them back in pages, leading to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting which could be used against high privilege users such as admin","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":"Ajax Search Lite Pro \u003c 4.26.2 - Multiple Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2023-1435","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Infinite recursion in Jettison leads to denial of service when creating a crafted JSONArray","id":"CVE-2023-1436"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SourceCodester Gadget Works Online Ordering System Products unrestricted upload","id":"CVE-2023-1433"},"products":["Ajax Search Pro"],"published":"2023-04-24","related":[{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"WordPress Ajax Search Lite Plugin \u003c= 4.11.4 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2024-21752","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-29"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Ajax Search Lite \u003c 4.11.1, Pro \u003c 4.26.2 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2023-1420","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-04-24"},{"cvss_score":4.8,"headline":"Ajax Search Lite \u003c= 4.12.2 - Admin+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2024-8619","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-15"},{"cvss_score":4.8,"headline":"Ajax Search Lite \u003c 4.12.1 - Admin+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2024-7084","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-08-06"},{"cvss_score":4.7,"headline":"Ajax Search Lite \u003c 4.12.4 - Admin+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2024-10568","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-12"},{"cvss_score":3.5,"headline":"Ajax Search Lite \u003c 4.12.5 - Admin+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2024-13585","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-21"}],"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":"Reflected XSS in Ajax Search Lite Pro allows attackers to execute scripts against admin users, potentially leading to account takeover.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-1435/"}
