Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an authenticated WordPress account with at least Contributor privileges on a site running Sync Post With Other Site version 1.9.3 or earlier (PR:L in the CVSS vector), and the ability to reach the plugin's file-upload handler over the network (AV:N) with no victim interaction (UI:N). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H (9.9 Critical) indicates network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation requiring only low privileges and no user interaction, with total confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact across a changed scope - consistent with file-upload-to-RCE. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
