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-2023-49823 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: BoldThemes Bold Page Builder. 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-2023-49823/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-49823/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-49823","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-49823/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-49823","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-69m3-5g7g-x3r7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Stored XSS in Bold Page Builder allows attackers to inject malicious scripts, potentially leading to session hijacking or code execution.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"bold_page_builder","vendor":"bold-themes"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in BoldThemes Bold Page Builder allows Stored XSS.This issue affects Bold Page Builder: from n/a through 4.6.1.","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 Bold Page Builder Plugin \u003c= 4.6.1 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-49823","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Product Catalog Feed by PixelYourSite Plugin \u003c= 2.1.1 is vulnerable to Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF)","id":"CVE-2023-49824"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Ultimate Dashboard plugin \u003c= 3.7.10 - Secret Login Page Location Disclosure on Multisites vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-49822"},"products":["Bold Page Builder"],"published":"2023-12-15","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Bold Page Builder \u003c 3.1.6 - PHP Object Injection","id":"CVE-2021-24579","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-30"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-15821","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-30"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Bold Page Builder plugin \u003c= 5.2.1 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-53801","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-06"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Bold Page Builder plugin \u003c= 5.1.1 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-47298","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-06"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Bold Page Builder plugin \u003c 5.1.1 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-47391","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-05"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Bold Page Builder plugin \u003c= 4.8.0 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-30442","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-29"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Bold Page Builder plugin \u003c= 4.7.6 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-30179","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-27"}],"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":["BoldThemes"]},"summary":"Stored XSS in Bold Page Builder allows attackers to inject malicious scripts, potentially leading to session hijacking or code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-49823/"}
