Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-4798 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown User Avatar. 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-2023-4798/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4798/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-4798","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4798/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-4798","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cv5w-p79v-vvxq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Low-privileged users can inject malicious scripts via shortcode attributes, leading to stored XSS attacks in the User Avatar plugin.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"user_avatar-reloaded","vendor":"wpexperts"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"The User Avatar WordPress plugin before 1.2.2 does not properly sanitize and escape certain of its shortcodes attributes, which could allow relatively low-privileged users like contributors to conduct Stored XSS attacks.","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":"User Avatar - Reloaded \u003c 1.2.2 - Contributor+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2023-4798","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Magic Embeds \u003c 3.1.2 - Contributor+ Stored XSS via shortcode","id":"CVE-2023-4799"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Newsletter Lite \u003c 4.9.3 - Admin+ Command Injection","id":"CVE-2023-4797"},"products":["User Avatar"],"published":"2023-10-16","related":[],"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":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-02","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Low-privileged users can inject malicious scripts via shortcode attributes, leading to stored XSS attacks in the User Avatar plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-4798/"}
