An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-5307 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Photos and Files Contest Gallery. 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-2023-5307/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-5307/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-5307","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-5307/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-5307","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hmf3-8cx7-g4jw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can inject malicious scripts via HTTP headers in the Photos and Files Contest Gallery WordPress plugin, potentially compromising user sessions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"contest_gallery","vendor":"contest-gallery"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"The Photos and Files Contest Gallery WordPress plugin before 21.2.8.1 does not sanitise and escape some parameters, which could allow unauthenticated users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks via certain headers.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Photos and Files Contest Gallery – Contact Form \u003c 21.2.8.1 - Unauthenticated Stored XSS via HTTP Headers","id":"CVE-2023-5307","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Podcast Subscribe Buttons \u003c= 1.4.8 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Shortcode","id":"CVE-2023-5308"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"This CVE ID has been rejected or withdrawn by its CVE Numbering Authority.","id":"CVE-2023-5306"},"products":["Photos and Files Contest Gallery"],"published":"2023-10-31","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Contest Gallery \u003c= 24.0.7 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary Password Reset to Privilege Escalation/Account Takeover","id":"CVE-2024-11103","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-28"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SQL injection in Contest Gallery – Upload \u0026 Vote Photos, Media, Sell with PayPal \u0026 Stripe","id":"CVE-2024-10687","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-05"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in Contest Gallery","id":"CVE-2019-5974","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-05"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"WordPress Contest Gallery plugin \u003c= 21.3.4 - Arbitrary File Deletion vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-32778","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-09"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"WordPress Contest Gallery plugin \u003c= 21.3.4 - SQL Injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-30236","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-28"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"WordPress Photos and Files Contest Gallery plugin \u003c= 21.3.2 - SQL Injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-30238","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-27"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"WordPress Contest Gallery plugin \u003c= 25.1.0 - SQL Injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-22693","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-03"}],"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":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-04-22","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can inject malicious scripts via HTTP headers in the Photos and Files Contest Gallery WordPress plugin, potentially compromising user sessions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-5307/"}
