| Impact | While the CVSS base score of 5.3 registers as moderate severity, multiple risk signals suggest lower real-world priority. The EPSS exploitation probability of 0.02% (5th percentile) represents minimal likelihood of active exploitation in the wild. No CISA KEV status is indicated, and no public proof-of-concept code has been identified in the provided data. The vulnerability is classified as information disclosure rather than code execution or authentication bypass, limiting the immediate attack impact to confidentiality loss of sensitive system data (e.g., plugin versions, configuration details). However, exposed system information can facilitate reconnaissance for secondary attacks; organizations should prioritize patching based on whether this WordPress instance handles high-value data (payment processing, user PII) that could be combined with additional vulnerabilities. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An unauthenticated attacker sends a crafted HTTP request to an unprotected API endpoint or data exposure point in the Nexter Blocks plugin, retrieving embedded sensitive data such as plugin configuration, system paths, or metadata without providing credentials. This reconnaissance data can then be used to identify additional vulnerabilities or weaknesses in the WordPress installation for subsequent attacks. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Apr 14, 2026
Nexter Blocks WordPress plugin versions through 4.7.0 expose sensitive system information to unauthenticated remote attackers via an information disclosure vulnerability, allowing retrieval of embedded sensitive data without authentication or user interaction. The CVSS score of 5.3 reflects moderate confidentiality impact with low attack complexity, though the EPSS score of 0.02% (5th percentile) indicates minimal real-world exploitation probability at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
Update Nexter Blocks to a version released after 4.7.0; consult the Patchstack advisory for the exact patched version number. If an immediate update is unavailable, implement network-level controls to restrict unauthenticated access to WordPress plugin endpoints, and audit recent access logs to determine whether sensitive data has been retrieved. Disable the Nexter Blocks plugin temporarily if the plugin vendor has not released a patch and the WordPress site contains high-sensitivity data.

Technical ContextAI · show details
This vulnerability stems from CWE-497 (Exposure of Sensitive System Information to an Unauthorized Control Sphere), which occurs when a system fails to restrict access to sensitive information from being exposed to unauthorized parties. In the context of the Nexter Blocks WordPress plugin (a block editor extension for Elementor-like page building), the vulnerability likely involves inadequately protected API endpoints, database queries, or data serialization that exposes system metadata, plugin configuration, or other sensitive data accessible over the network. The attack vector is network-based (AV:N) with low complexity (AC:L) and no privilege escalation required (PR:N), indicating the vulnerability can be triggered by unauthenticated HTTP requests without special preconditions.
