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-2023-37865 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Download IP2Location Country Blocker. 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-2023-37865/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-37865/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-37865","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-37865/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-37865","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-427c-xc35-8535"],"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 IP-based access controls to access restricted functionality in the IP2Location Country Blocker WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"country_blocker","vendor":"ip2location"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-290","name":"Authentication Bypass by Spoofing"}],"description":"Authentication Bypass by Spoofing vulnerability in IP2Location Download IP2Location Country Blocker allows Accessing Functionality Not Properly Constrained by ACLs.This issue affects Download IP2Location Country Blocker: from n/a through 2.29.1.","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 IP2Location Country Blocker plugin \u003c= 2.29.1 - IP Bypass Vulnerability vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-37865","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress JetFormBuilder plugin \u003c= 3.0.8 - Authenticated Privilege Escalation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-37866"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"PHOENIX CONTACT: WP 6xxx Web panels prone to download code without integrity check","id":"CVE-2023-37864"},"products":["Download IP2Location Country Blocker"],"published":"2024-06-04","related":[{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Missing authorization in IP2Location Country Blocker","id":"CVE-2025-1361","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-22"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"IP2Location Country Blocker \u003c 2.26.5 - Subscriber+ Arbitrary Country Ban","id":"CVE-2021-25095","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-07"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"IP2Location Country Blocker \u003c 2.26.6 - Arbitrary Country Ban via CSRF","id":"CVE-2021-25108","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-07"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"IP2Location Country Blocker \u003c 2.26.5 - Ban Bypass","id":"CVE-2021-25096","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-07"},{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"WordPress IP2Location Country Blocker plugin \u003c= 2.38.3 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-24731","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-01-24"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"WordPress Download IP2Location Country Blocker Plugin \u003c= 2.33.3 is vulnerable to Sensitive Data Exposure","id":"CVE-2024-22294","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-01-24"}],"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":["IP2Location"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass IP-based access controls to access restricted functionality in the IP2Location Country Blocker WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-37865/"}
