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-2023-23986 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Noah Hearle, Design Extreme Reviews and Rating – Google My Business. 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-2023-23986/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23986/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-23986","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23986/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-23986","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8jc6-xgrg-9fp3"],"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 bypass access controls in the Reviews and Rating plugin to perform unauthorized actions, requiring plugin updates.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"Missing Authorization vulnerability in Noah Hearle, Design Extreme Reviews and Rating – Google My Business allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects Reviews and Rating – Google My Business: from n/a through 4.14.","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":"WordPress Reviews and Rating – Google My Business plugin \u003c= 4.14 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-23986","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":"WordPress User Registration Plugin \u003c= 2.3.0 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-23987"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Quiz Maker plugin \u003c= 6.3.9.4 - Content Spoofing","id":"CVE-2023-23985"},"products":["Reviews and Rating – Google My Business"],"published":"2024-12-09","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":["Noah Hearle, Design Extreme"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass access controls in the Reviews and Rating plugin to perform unauthorized actions, requiring plugin updates.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23986/"}
