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-2023-4318 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Herd Effects. 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-2023-4318/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4318/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-4318","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4318/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-4318","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-c5c6-5pcc-f6x9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can force logged-in admins to delete arbitrary effects via CSRF, requiring an upgrade to the Herd Effects WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"csrf"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"herd_effects","vendor":"wow-company"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"The Herd Effects WordPress plugin before 5.2.4 does not have CSRF when deleting its items, which could allow attackers to make logged in admins delete arbitrary effects via a CSRF attack","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":"Herd Effects \u003c 5.2.4 - Effect Deletion via CSRF","id":"CVE-2023-4318","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"csrf","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Satellite: arithmetic overflow in satellite","id":"CVE-2023-4320"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Incorrect Authorization in GitLab","id":"CVE-2023-4317"},"products":["Herd Effects"],"published":"2023-09-11","related":[{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Herd Effects \u003c 5.2.7 - Effect Deletion via CSRF","id":"CVE-2024-3478","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-02"},{"cvss_score":4.8,"headline":"Herd Effects \u003c 5.2.3 - Admin+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2023-4022","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-11"}],"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":"2025-04-23","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Attackers can force logged-in admins to delete arbitrary effects via CSRF, requiring an upgrade to the Herd Effects WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4318/"}
