Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-23645 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: MainWP Code Snippets Extension. 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-2023-23645/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23645/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-23645","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23645/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-23645","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9mxj-v3x9-fjfr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers with subscriber access can inject and execute arbitrary PHP code in the MainWP Code Snippets Extension plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"code_snippets_extension","vendor":"mainwp"}],"cvss":{"score":9.9,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') vulnerability in MainWP MainWP Code Snippets Extension allows Code Injection.This issue affects MainWP Code Snippets Extension: from n/a through 4.0.2.","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":"Code injection in MainWP Code Snippets Extension","id":"CVE-2023-23645","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Album Gallery – WordPress Gallery Plugin \u003c= 1.4.9 is vulnerable to Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF)","id":"CVE-2023-23646"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Uji Popup Plugin \u003c= 1.4.3 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-23641"},"products":["MainWP Code Snippets Extension"],"published":"2024-05-17","related":[{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress MainWP Code Snippets Extension Plugin \u003c= 4.0.2 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-23650","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-23"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["MainWP"]},"summary":"Attackers with subscriber access can inject and execute arbitrary PHP code in the MainWP Code Snippets Extension plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23645/"}
