Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-6700 exists.\n\nAffected product: cookieinformation Cookie Information | Free GDPR Consent Solution. 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-2023-6700/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-6700/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-6700","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-6700/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-6700","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gj6f-cjc7-f9fg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated subscribers can update arbitrary site options to create administrator accounts due to missing capability checks.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[{"product":"wp-gdpr-compliance","vendor":"cookieinformation"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"The Cookie Information | Free GDPR Consent Solution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary option updates due to a missing capability check on its AJAX request handler in versions up to, and including, 2.0.22.
