An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-49773 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Tim Brattberg BCorp Shortcodes. 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-2023-49773/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-49773/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-49773","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-49773/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-49773","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pj9c-hcpv-v3j8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can exploit PHP object injection in the BCorp Shortcodes plugin to potentially execute arbitrary code on WordPress sites.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"deserialization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"bcorp_shortcodes","vendor":"bcorp_shortcodes_project"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-502","name":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data"}],"description":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in Tim Brattberg BCorp Shortcodes.This issue affects BCorp Shortcodes: from n/a through 0.23.","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":"WordPress BCorp Shortcodes Plugin \u003c= 0.23 is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection","id":"CVE-2023-49773","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"deserialization","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress WP Photo Album Plus plugin \u003c= 8.5.02.005 - IP Bypass vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-49774"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Genesis Simple Love Plugin \u003c= 2.0 is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection","id":"CVE-2023-49772"},"products":["BCorp Shortcodes"],"published":"2023-12-20","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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["Tim Brattberg"]},"summary":"Attackers can exploit PHP object injection in the BCorp Shortcodes plugin to potentially execute arbitrary code on WordPress sites.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-49773/"}
