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-2024-8520 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: ultimatemember Ultimate Member – User Profile, Registration, Login, Member Directory, Content Restriction \u0026 Membership 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-2024-8520/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-8520/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-8520","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-8520/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-8520","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-ffgp-p9ff-m7wf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can trick administrators into changing user membership statuses via forged requests due to missing nonce validation in the Ultimate Member plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"csrf"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[{"product":"ultimate_member","vendor":"ultimatemember"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-352","name":"Cross-Site Request Forgery"}],"description":"The Ultimate Member – User Profile, Registration, Login, Member Directory, Content Restriction \u0026 Membership Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.6.
