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-2023-49850 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ashish Ajani WP Simple HTML Sitemap. 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-2023-49850/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-49850/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-49850","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-49850/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-49850","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pv94-6hw8-hh77"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass access controls in the WP Simple HTML Sitemap plugin to perform unauthorized actions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"Missing Authorization vulnerability in Ashish Ajani WP Simple HTML Sitemap allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects WP Simple HTML Sitemap: from n/a through 2.7.","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 WP Simple HTML Sitemap plugin \u003c= 2.7 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-49850","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Square Thumbnails plugin \u003c= 1.1.1 - Broken Access Control + CSRF vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-49851"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Shortcoder plugin \u003c= 6.3 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-49849"},"products":["WP Simple HTML Sitemap"],"published":"2024-12-09","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["Ashish Ajani"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass access controls in the WP Simple HTML Sitemap plugin to perform unauthorized actions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-49850/"}
