CVE-2024-8483

The MAS Static Content plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.8 via the static_content() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to extract potentially sensitive information from private static content pages.

Technical Summary

The MAS Static Content plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.8 via the static_content() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to extract potentially sensitive information from private static content pages.

Potential Impact

Severity is MEDIUM (CVSS 4.3). Depending on deployment context, affected components may be exposed to unauthorized actions or data integrity risk.

Exploitability Assessment

Exploitability is assessed as High based on remote code execution potential.

Primary risk drivers: remote code execution potential

Mitigation Recommendations

Validate affected product versions, prioritize patching, and monitor references for vendor remediation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, apply compensating controls and limit exposure of vulnerable surfaces.

Detection & Monitoring

Track authentication anomalies, unexpected file writes, and suspicious plugin API activity around affected components.

Business Impact Lens

Prioritize remediation where affected components process customer data, admin sessions, or Internet-exposed workflows.

What to do about this

Patch on your next cycle Worth fixing, but not ahead of other work.

Fix it

Update Mas Static Content to 1.0.9 or later.

That is the complete fix. Everything below is what protects you in the meantime.

Cannot update today? Restrict REST API in Hack Halt Pro blocks this class of attack before WordPress processes the request.

Require authentication for REST namespaces that do not need to be public, so the API cannot be used to enumerate content and accounts.

Not sure if you are affected?

Scan your site to see whether it runs Mas Static Content, and at which version.

Free, no installation, no account. It reads what your site already publishes, then tells you which plugins carry known vulnerabilities and what to do about each one.

Am I affected by this vulnerability?

You are affected if your site runs Mas Static Content. Versions below 1.0.9 are vulnerable; that release and later are not.

How do I fix it?

Update Mas Static Content to version 1.0.9 or later. That is the complete fix. Until you can update, Restrict REST API in Hack Halt Pro contains this class of attack at the request layer.

What can an attacker actually do?

This is a Information Disclosure flaw. An attacker who exploits it can read data they were never meant to see, which is often the first step in a larger attack.
