An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2024-11620 exists.\n\nAffected product: Rank Math SEO. 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-2024-11620/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-11620/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-11620","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-11620/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-11620","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8p6f-w8w3-4g59"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress SEO plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can inject code into the .htaccess file to achieve remote code execution on sites using the Rank Math SEO plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') vulnerability in Rank Math SEO Rank Math SEO seo-by-rank-math allows Code Injection.This issue affects Rank Math SEO: from n/a through \u003c= 1.0.231.","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":"WordPress Rank Math SEO plugin \u003c= 1.0.231 - Arbitrary .htaccess Overwrite to Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-11620","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in Remote Desktop Manager","id":"CVE-2024-11621"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"macrozheng mall JWT Token default key","id":"CVE-2024-11619"},"products":["Rank Math SEO"],"published":"2024-11-28","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":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["Rank Math SEO"]},"summary":"Attackers can inject code into the .htaccess file to achieve remote code execution on sites using the Rank Math SEO plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-11620/"}
