An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-48042 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Contact Form by Supsystic. 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-2024-48042/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-48042/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-48042","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-48042/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-48042","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-h9vw-g3h9-6jvw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can achieve remote code execution via unsafe deserialization in the Contact Form by Supsystic WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"deserialization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-82","name":"Improper Neutralization of Script in Attributes of IMG Tags in a Web Page"}],"description":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in supsystic Contact Form by Supsystic contact-form-by-supsystic allows Command Injection.This issue affects Contact Form by Supsystic: from n/a through \u003c= 1.7.28.","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 Contact Form by Supsystic plugin \u003c= 1.7.28 - Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-48042","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"deserialization","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress ShortPixel Image Optimizer plugin \u003c= 5.6.3 - SQL Injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-48043"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress CM Tooltip Glossary plugin \u003c= 4.3.9 - Stored Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-48041"},"products":["Contact Form by Supsystic"],"published":"2024-10-16","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":["supsystic"]},"summary":"Attackers can achieve remote code execution via unsafe deserialization in the Contact Form by Supsystic WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-48042/"}
