id: CVE-2022-3590

info:
  name: WordPress <= 6.2 - Server Side Request Forgery
  author: riteshs4hu
  severity: medium
  description: |
    WordPress is affected by an unauthenticated blind SSRF in the pingback feature. Because of a TOCTOU race condition between the validation checks and the HTTP request, attackers can reach internal hosts that are explicitly forbidden.
  impact: |
    Unauthenticated attackers can exploit a race condition in the WordPress pingback feature to perform blind SSRF attacks, potentially accessing internal network resources, cloud metadata endpoints, or other restricted internal services that are explicitly forbidden by validation checks.
  remediation: |
    Update WordPress to version 6.0.3 or later that properly handles TOCTOU race conditions in the pingback feature.
