An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-6591 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: nitesh_singh Ultimate WordPress Auction Plugin. 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-2024-6591/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-6591/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-6591","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-6591/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-6591","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jvq3-2554-r9j9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify","other"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress auction plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can send arbitrary emails with links to any address due to missing capability checks in the Ultimate WordPress Auction Plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"The Ultimate WordPress Auction Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized email creation and sending due to a missing capability check on the 'send_auction_email_callback' and 'resend_auction_email_callback' functions in all versions up to, and including, 4.2.7.
