An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-50897 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Meow Apps Media File Renamer. 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-2023-50897/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-50897/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-50897","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-50897/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-50897","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8m2h-8f3p-p428"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can upload malicious files to achieve remote code execution in WordPress sites using the Media File Renamer plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"file_upload"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-434","name":"Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type"}],"description":"Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type vulnerability in Meow Apps Media File Renamer allows Using Malicious Files.This issue affects Media File Renamer: from n/a through 5.7.7.","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 Media File Renamer plugin \u003c= 5.7.7 - Arbitrary File Rename lead to RCE vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-50897","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"file_upload","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Image Optimizer, Resizer and CDN – Sirv plugin \u003c= 7.1.2 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-50898"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress weForms Plugin \u003c= 1.6.17 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-50896"},"products":["Media File Renamer"],"published":"2026-01-05","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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["Meow Apps"]},"summary":"Attackers can upload malicious files to achieve remote code execution in WordPress sites using the Media File Renamer plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-50897/"}
