CVE-2023-2287 — Themeisle Orbitfox security vulnerability

Medium CVSS 4.3

The Orbit Fox by ThemeIsle WordPress plugin before 2.10.24 does not limit URLs which may be used for the stock photo import feature, allowing the user to specify arbitrary URLs. This leads to a server-side request forgery as the user may force the server to access any URL of their choosing.

Server-side request forgery and unintended proxying

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Inventory server-side URL fetchers, webhooks, importers, previews, redirects, proxies, and protocol handlers reachable from untrusted input.
  • Map egress paths to internal services, metadata endpoints, loopback, private address space, and privileged control planes.
  • Review DNS resolution, redirect, proxy, credential-forwarding, and URL parsing behavior without requesting sensitive targets.

Remediate safely

  • Replace arbitrary destinations with named integrations or a strict allowlist of schemes, hosts, ports, and paths.
  • Resolve and validate every destination and redirect hop, then enforce egress policy independently of application checks.
  • Remove ambient credentials and sensitive headers from fetchers; apply response size, time, and content limits.
