An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-3720 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Upload Media By URL. 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-2023-3720/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-3720/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-3720","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-3720/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-3720","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-v9xx-v54p-m2hw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can force admins to upload malicious HTML files via CSRF, leading to stored XSS and potential code execution.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"upload_media_by_url","vendor":"notetoservices"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"The Upload Media By URL WordPress plugin before 1.0.8 does not have CSRF check when uploading files, which could allow attackers to make logged in admins upload files (including HTML containing JS code for users with the unfiltered_html capability) on their behalf.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Upload Media By URL \u003c 1.0.8 - Stored XSS via CSRF","id":"CVE-2023-3720","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WP-EMail \u003c 2.69.1 - Admin+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2023-3721"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Authenticated Command Injection Vulnerability in AOS-CX Command Line Interface","id":"CVE-2023-3718"},"products":["Upload Media By URL"],"published":"2023-08-30","related":[],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-05-05","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Attackers can force admins to upload malicious HTML files via CSRF, leading to stored XSS and potential code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-3720/"}
