What is known
The FeedWordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 2022.0222 due to missing validation on the user controlled 'guid' key. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to view draft posts that may contain sensitive information.
Business impact
Successful exploitation of CVE-2024-0839, a medium vulnerability (CVSS 5.3) affecting feedwordpress, may affect the confidentiality, integrity or availability of the vulnerable environment. The exact impact depends on the installed version, exposed interfaces and deployment configuration.
Recommended administrator action
Confirm whether feedwordpress is present and compare installed versions with the vendor advisory and NVD record. Apply the vendor patch or documented mitigation; until remediation is complete, reduce exposure of affected interfaces, review relevant logs and monitor for indicators of exploitation.
