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-2023-23834 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Brainstorm Force Spectra. 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-2023-23834/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23834/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-23834","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23834/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-23834","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hpqg-c42f-fxqx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass authorization checks to activate plugins or perform unauthorized actions in the Spectra WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"spectra","vendor":"brainstormforce"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"Missing Authorization vulnerability in Brainstorm Force Spectra allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects Spectra: from n/a through 2.3.0.","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":"Missing authorization in Spectra","id":"CVE-2023-23834","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in Mendix Applications using Mendix 7","id":"CVE-2023-23835"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Drop Shadow Boxes Plugin \u003c= 1.7.10 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-23833"},"products":["Spectra"],"published":"2024-12-09","related":[{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"WordPress Spectra plugin \u003c= 2.6.6 - Server Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-36679","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-28"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Spectra plugin\u003c= 2.14.1 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-7590","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-08-12"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Spectra Plugin \u003c= 2.7.9 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-49833","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-12-14"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Spectra Gutenberg Blocks – Website Builder for the Block Editor","id":"CVE-2024-10484","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-03"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Spectra – WordPress Gutenberg Blocks \u003c= 2.13.0 - Authenticated (Author+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2024-4366","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-24"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Spectra Gutenberg Blocks – Website Builder for the Block Editor","id":"CVE-2024-1814","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-23"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Spectra Gutenberg Blocks – Website Builder for the Block Editor","id":"CVE-2024-1815","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-23"}],"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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["Brainstorm Force"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass authorization checks to activate plugins or perform unauthorized actions in the Spectra WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23834/"}
