An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-41954 exists.\n\nAffected product: ProfilePress. 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-2023-41954/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-41954/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-41954","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-41954/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-41954","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f3p6-32mj-fj25"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can escalate privileges in the ProfilePress WordPress plugin due to improper privilege management.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"profilepress","vendor":"properfraction"}],"cvss":{"score":8.6,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-269","name":"Improper Privilege Management"}],"description":"Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in ProfilePress Membership Team ProfilePress allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects ProfilePress: from n/a through 4.13.1.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":null,"kind":"nuclei","ref":"http/cves/2023/CVE-2023-41954.yaml","stars":null,"title":"ProfilePress \u003c= 4.13.1 — Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"WordPress ProfilePress plugin \u003c= 4.13.1 - Unauthenticated Limited Privilege Escalation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-41954","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Essential Addons for Elementor plugin \u003c= 5.8.8 - Contributor+ Privilege Escalation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-41955"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress ProfilePress plugin \u003c= 4.13.1 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-41953"},"products":["ProfilePress"],"published":"2024-05-17","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"ProfilePress 3.0 - 3.1.3 - Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2021-34621","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-07-07"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"ProfilePress 3.0 - 3.1.3 - Authenticated Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2021-34622","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-07-07"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"ProfilePress 3.0 - 3.1.3 - Arbitrary File Upload in Image Uploader Component","id":"CVE-2021-34623","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-07-07"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"ProfilePress 3.0 - 3.1.3 - Arbitrary File Upload in File Uploader Component","id":"CVE-2021-34624","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-07-07"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"ProfilePress - Pro \u003c= 4.11.1 - Authentication Bypass via WordPress.com OAuth provider","id":"CVE-2024-9947","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-23"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"WordPress ProfilePress Plugin \u003c= 4.13.2 is vulnerable to Sensitive Data Exposure","id":"CVE-2023-44150","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-30"}],"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)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"MIT","name":"Nuclei templates"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["ProfilePress Membership Team"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can escalate privileges in the ProfilePress WordPress plugin due to improper privilege management.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-41954/"}
