CVE-2022-4417
The WP Cerber Security, Anti-spam & Malware Scan WordPress plugin before 9.3.3 does not properly block access to the REST API users endpoint when the blog is in a subdirectory, which could allow attackers to bypass the restriction in place and list users
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.68%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
