An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-37978 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Dimitar Ivanov HTTP Headers. 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-2023-37978/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-37978/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-37978","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-37978/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-37978","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4xhm-q9h6-mq38"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can exploit SSRF in the HTTP Headers WordPress plugin to access internal resources or bypass security controls.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"ssrf"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"http_headers","vendor":"riverside"}],"cvss":{"score":4.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-918","name":"Server-Side Request Forgery"}],"description":"Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in Dimitar Ivanov HTTP Headers.This issue affects HTTP Headers: from n/a through 1.18.11.","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 HTTP Headers Plugin \u003c= 1.18.11 is vulnerable to Server Side Request Forgery (SSRF)","id":"CVE-2023-37978","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"ssrf","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Ninja Forms Plugin \u003c= 3.6.25 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-37979"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress WPFunnels Plugin \u003c= 2.7.16 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-37977"},"products":["HTTP Headers"],"published":"2023-11-13","related":[{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"HTTP Headers \u003c 1.18.11 - Admin+ Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2023-1208","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-07-10"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"HTTP Headers \u003c 1.18.8 - Admin+ SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2023-1207","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-15"},{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"WordPress HTTP Headers Plugin \u003c= 1.18.11 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-37874","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-05"}],"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":["Dimitar Ivanov"]},"summary":"Attackers can exploit SSRF in the HTTP Headers WordPress plugin to access internal resources or bypass security controls.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-37978/"}
