An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-6164 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: MainWP Dashboard: Self-hosted WordPress Management for Agencies. 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-2023-6164/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-6164/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-6164","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-6164/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-6164","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-666g-9c82-3mm3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Administrators can inject arbitrary CSS via the newColor parameter, potentially leading to script execution or security bypasses in the MainWP Dashboard plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[{"product":"mainwp","vendor":"mainwp"}],"cvss":{"score":2.2,"severity":"low","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"},{"id":"CWE-74","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component"}],"description":"The MainWP Dashboard  – WordPress Manager for Multiple Websites Maintenance plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to CSS Injection via the ‘newColor’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.5.1.2 due to insufficient input sanitization.
