Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-52117 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Metagauss ProfileGrid. 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-2023-52117/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-52117/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-52117","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-52117/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-52117","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q6mx-hm3f-h864"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can bypass authorization checks in the ProfileGrid WordPress plugin to access restricted functionality.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"profilegrid","vendor":"metagauss"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"Missing Authorization vulnerability in Metagauss ProfileGrid.This issue affects ProfileGrid: from n/a through 5.6.6.","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 ProfileGrid plugin \u003c= 5.6.6 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-52117","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 WP User Profile Avatar Plugin \u003c= 1.0 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-52118"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in EMUI","id":"CVE-2023-52116"},"products":["ProfileGrid"],"published":"2024-06-12","related":[{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"WordPress ProfileGrid plugin \u003c= 5.7.8 - SQL Injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-30490","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-29"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"ProfileGrid – User Profiles, Groups and Communities \u003c= 5.9.4.5 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) PHP Object Injection","id":"CVE-2025-0724","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-03-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in ProfileGrid – User Profiles, Groups and Communities","id":"CVE-2024-6411","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-10"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"ProfileGrid \u003c= 5.5.1 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Arbitrary Option Update","id":"CVE-2023-3713","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-07-18"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"ProfileGrid \u003c 5.3.1 - Subscriber+ Arbitrary Password Reset","id":"CVE-2023-0940","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-20"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-15873","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-09-03"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"SQL injection in ProfileGrid","id":"CVE-2024-30491","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-29"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["Metagauss"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass authorization checks in the ProfileGrid WordPress plugin to access restricted functionality.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-52117/"}
