An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-50839 exists.\n\nAffected product: JS Help Desk – Best Help Desk \u0026 Support Plugin. 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-2023-50839/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-50839/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-50839","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-50839/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-50839","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3f5j-mfg2-hxvj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary SQL commands via the JS Help Desk plugin, potentially reading or modifying database contents.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"sql_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"js_help_desk","vendor":"wiselyhub"}],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-89","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command"}],"description":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in JS Help Desk JS Help Desk – Best Help Desk \u0026 Support Plugin.This issue affects JS Help Desk – Best Help Desk \u0026 Support Plugin: from n/a through 2.8.1.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2026-04-24","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":0,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":"2026-04-24T15:38:56Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/Francesco-CyberIntelligence/bug-bounty-findings-o-research-disclosures.","stars":0,"title":"Bug Bounty: CVE-2023-50839 IDOR identified in a third-party support component via 'gau' and 'Nuclei'.
