An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-4797 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Newsletters. 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-2023-4797/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4797/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-4797","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4797/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-4797","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hjjv-gwf3-fpj2"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Administrators can execute arbitrary commands on the server due to improper escaping of user-controlled parameters in the Newsletter Lite plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"newsletters","vendor":"tribulant"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-77","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command"}],"description":"The Newsletters WordPress plugin before 4.9.3 does not properly escape user-controlled parameters when they are appended to SQL queries and shell commands, which could enable an administrator to run arbitrary commands on the server.","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":"Newsletter Lite \u003c 4.9.3 - Admin+ Command Injection","id":"CVE-2023-4797","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"command_injection","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"User Avatar - Reloaded \u003c 1.2.2 - Contributor+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2023-4798"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Booster for WooCommerce \u003c= 7.1.0 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Information Disclosure via Shortcode","id":"CVE-2023-4796"},"products":["Newsletters"],"published":"2024-01-16","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20987","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Newsletters \u003c= 4.9.9.2 - Authenticated Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2024-8247","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-09-06"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-14788","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-15"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Newsletters \u003c= 4.9.9.9 - Authenticated (Administrator+) Local File Inclusion","id":"CVE-2025-4857","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-31"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"WordPress Newsletters plugin \u003c= 4.9.5 - Reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-35718","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-08"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Newsletters \u003c= 4.9.9.4 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via newsletters_video Shortcode","id":"CVE-2024-10181","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-29"}],"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":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-06-11","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Administrators can execute arbitrary commands on the server due to improper escaping of user-controlled parameters in the Newsletter Lite plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4797/"}
