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-2023-40005 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Awesomemotive Easy Digital Downloads. 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-2023-40005/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-40005/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-40005","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-40005/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-40005","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-485q-m5hh-2rqx"],"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 access controls in the Easy Digital Downloads WordPress plugin to perform unauthorized actions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"easy_digital_downloads","vendor":"awesomemotive"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"Missing Authorization vulnerability in Syed Balkhi Easy Digital Downloads easy-digital-downloads allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects Easy Digital Downloads: from n/a through \u003c= 3.1.5.","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 Easy Digital Downloads plugin \u003c= 3.1.5 - Broken Access Control","id":"CVE-2023-40005","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"awesomemotive:easy_digital_downloads","products":["awesomemotive:easy_digital_downloads"],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress CT Commerce Plugin \u003c= 2.0.1 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-40007"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Unauth.
