It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, 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-2024-3478 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Herd Effects . 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-2024-3478/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-3478/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-3478","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-3478/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-3478","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xmjw-8f7c-p37x"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can trick logged-in admins into deleting effects via CSRF, requiring an upgrade to the Herd Effects WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"csrf"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"herd_effects","vendor":"wow-company"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-352","name":"Cross-Site Request Forgery"}],"description":"The Herd Effects  WordPress plugin before 5.2.7 does not have CSRF checks in some bulk actions, which could allow attackers to make logged in admins perform unwanted actions, such as deleting effects via CSRF attacks","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":"Herd Effects \u003c 5.2.7 - Effect Deletion via CSRF","id":"CVE-2024-3478","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"csrf","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Phones","id":"CVE-2024-3479"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Popup Box \u003c 2.2.7 - Popup Deletion via CSRF","id":"CVE-2024-3477"},"products":["Herd Effects "],"published":"2024-05-02","related":[{"cvss_score":4.8,"headline":"Herd Effects \u003c 5.2.3 - Admin+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2023-4022","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-11"},{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Herd Effects \u003c 5.2.4 - Effect Deletion via CSRF","id":"CVE-2023-4318","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-11"}],"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":"2025-03-25","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Attackers can trick logged-in admins into deleting effects via CSRF, requiring an upgrade to the Herd Effects WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-3478/"}
