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-2024-8478 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: worschtebrot Affiliate Super Assistent. 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-2024-8478/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-8478/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-8478","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-8478/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-8478","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-w888-5jpq-hwqc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can execute arbitrary shortcodes in comments if the Parse comments option is enabled, potentially leading to code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[{"product":"affiliate_super_assistent","vendor":"ifeelweb"}],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"The The Affiliate Super Assistent plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution in all versions up to, and including, 1.5.3.
