This is due to the plugin using native password reset functionality, with insufficient validation on the password reset function (in the WP User Control Widget). The function changes the user's password after providing the email. The new password is only sent to the user's email, so the attacker does not have access to the new password.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","score":5.3},"cwes":["CWE-620"],"references":["https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-user-control/tags/1.5.3/inc/WPUserControlWidget.php#L893","https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/f4ca1736-7b99-49db-9367-586dbc14df41?source=cve","https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-user-control/tags/1.5.3/inc/WPUserControlWidget.php#L893","https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/f4ca1736-7b99-49db-9367-586dbc14df41?source=cve"],"products":["palmspark:wp_user_control"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:39:24.235896374+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2023-4915","score":0.00455,"percentile":0.3948,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
