An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2023-47178 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2023-47178 is a high-severity path traversal vulnerability in POSIMYTH Innovation The Plus Addons for Elementor Pro, published on 17 May 2024. 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-2023-47178 exists.\n\nAffected product: POSIMYTH Innovation The Plus Addons for Elementor Pro. 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-2023-47178/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-47178/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-47178","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-47178/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-47178","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-536g-7m64-v9jp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can exploit a path traversal flaw to include local files, potentially leading to data disclosure or code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"the_plus_addons_for_elementor","vendor":"posimyth"}],"cvss":{"score":8.6,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') vulnerability in POSIMYTH Innovation The Plus Addons for Elementor Pro allows PHP Local File Inclusion.This issue affects The Plus Addons for Elementor Pro: from n/a through 5.2.8.","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":"WordPress The Plus Addons for Elementor Pro plugin \u003c= 5.2.8 - Unauthenticated Local File Inclusion vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-47178","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress WooODT Lite plugin \u003c= 2.4.6 - Arbitrary Site Option Update vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-47179"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Linker Plugin \u003c= 1.2.1 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-47177"},"products":["The Plus Addons for Elementor Pro"],"published":"2024-05-17","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"The Plus Addons for Elementor Pro \u003c 5.0.7 - Unauthenticated SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2021-24949","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-01-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"The Plus Addons for Elementor Page Builder \u003c 4.1.7 - Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2021-24175","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-04-05"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Path traversal in The Plus Addons for Elementor Page Builder Pro","id":"CVE-2024-5455","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-21"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in The Plus Addons for Elementor Page Builder Pro","id":"CVE-2021-4331","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-07"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"The Plus Addons for Elementor Pro \u003c 5.0.7 - Sensitive Data Disclosure","id":"CVE-2021-24948","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-01-10"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress The Plus Addons for Elementor plugin \u003c= 5.6.14 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-53823","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-06"}],"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":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["POSIMYTH Innovation"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can exploit a path traversal flaw to include local files, potentially leading to data disclosure or code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-47178/"}
