Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-51526 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Brett Shumaker Simple Staff List. 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-2023-51526/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-51526/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-51526","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-51526/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-51526","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6c4c-5hcj-j9pj"],"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":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can access or modify staff list data without proper authorization due to missing access controls in the Simple Staff List plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"Missing Authorization vulnerability in Brett Shumaker Simple Staff List.This issue affects Simple Staff List: from n/a through 2.2.4.","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 Simple Staff List plugin \u003c= 2.2.4 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-51526","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 GPT3 AI Content Writer Plugin \u003c= 1.8.2 is vulnerable to Sensitive Data Exposure","id":"CVE-2023-51527"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress WP Simple Booking Calendar plugin \u003c= 2.0.8.4 - Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-51525"},"products":["Simple Staff List"],"published":"2024-06-12","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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["Brett Shumaker"]},"summary":"Attackers can access or modify staff list data without proper authorization due to missing access controls in the Simple Staff List plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-51526/"}
