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-2025-23442/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-23442/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-23442","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-23442/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-23442","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rv2q-6fqc-f3r3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can exploit CSRF to inject stored XSS payloads, allowing script execution in victim browsers via the Shockingly Big IE6 Warning plugin.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"csrf"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-352","name":"Cross-Site Request Forgery"}],"description":"Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in mschertel Shockingly Big IE6 Warning shockingly-big-ie6-warning allows Stored XSS.This issue affects Shockingly Big IE6 Warning: from n/a through \u003c= 1.6.3.","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 Shockingly Big IE6 Warning plugin \u003c= 1.6.3 - CSRF to Stored XSS vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-23442","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"csrf","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Author Showcase plugin \u003c= 1.4.3 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-23443"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Attach Gallery Posts plugin \u003c= 1.6 - Reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-23441"},"products":["Shockingly Big IE6 Warning"],"published":"2025-01-16","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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["mschertel"]},"summary":"Attackers can exploit CSRF to inject stored XSS payloads, allowing script execution in victim browsers via the Shockingly Big IE6 Warning plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-23442/"}
