CVE-2024-4354 Information

Description

The TablePress – Tables in WordPress made easy plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery in all versions up to and including 2.3 via the get_files_to_import() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with author-level access and above to make web requests to arbitrary locations originating from the web application and can be used to query and modify information from internal services. Due to the complex nature of protecting against DNS rebind attacks in WordPress software we settled on the developer simply restricting the usage of the URL import functionality to just administrators. While this is not optimal we feel this poses a minimal risk to most site owners and ideally WordPress core would correct this issue in wp_safe_remote_get() and other functions.
