MW WP Form, published on 23 May 2023. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-28408 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Monkey Wrench Inc. MW WP Form. 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-2023-28408/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28408/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-28408","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28408/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-28408","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3q42-588x-m4gv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote unauthenticated attackers can exploit a directory traversal flaw in MW WP Form to read sensitive files or cause denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"jpcert","cpe":[{"product":"mw_wp_form","vendor":"mw_wp_form_project"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Directory traversal vulnerability in MW WP Form versions v4.4.2 and earlier allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to alter the website or cause a denial-of-service (DoS) condition, and obtain sensitive information depending on settings.","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":"Path traversal in MW WP Form","id":"CVE-2023-28408","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"File upload in MW WP Form","id":"CVE-2023-28409"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) XTU software","id":"CVE-2023-28407"},"products":["MW WP Form"],"published":"2023-05-23","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"MW WP Form \u003c= 5.0.1 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Upload","id":"CVE-2023-6316","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-01-11"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"File upload in MW WP Form","id":"CVE-2023-28409","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-23"}],"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":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-01-17","vendors":["Monkey Wrench Inc."]},"summary":"Remote unauthenticated attackers can exploit a directory traversal flaw in MW WP Form to read sensitive files or cause denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28408/"}
