## What is CVE-2023-2916?

CVE-2023-2916 is a high-severity vulnerability in revmakx InfiniteWP Client, published on 15 Aug 2023. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

The InfiniteWP Client plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in versions up to, and including, 1.11.1 via the 'admin_notice' function. This can allow authenticated attackers with subscriber-level permissions or above to extract sensitive data including configuration. It can only be exploited if the plugin has not been configured yet. If combined with another arbitrary plugin installation and activation vulnerability, it may be possible to connect a site to InfiniteWP which would make remote management possible and allow for elevation of privileges.

Weakness: CWE-668 (Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere), CWE-200 (Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor)
