Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-37424 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Automattic Newspack Blocks. 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-2024-37424/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-37424/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-37424","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-37424/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-37424","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rfxf-vp7h-9pjm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can upload malicious web shells to the server, enabling remote code execution on sites using the Newspack Blocks plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"file_upload"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.9,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-434","name":"Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type"}],"description":"Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type vulnerability in Automattic Newspack Blocks allows Upload a Web Shell to a Web Server.This issue affects Newspack Blocks: from n/a through 3.0.8.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"WordPress Newspack Blocks plugin \u003c= 3.0.8 - Arbitrary File Upload vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-37424","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"file_upload","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Newspack Blocks plugin \u003c= 3.0.8 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-37425"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Newspack Blocks plugin \u003c= 3.0.8 - Contributor+ Arbitrary Directory Deletion vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-37423"},"products":["Newspack Blocks"],"published":"2024-07-09","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":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["Automattic"]},"summary":"Attackers can upload malicious web shells to the server, enabling remote code execution on sites using the Newspack Blocks plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-37424/"}
