Official Description
The Getwid – Gutenberg Blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server Side Request Forgery via the get_remote_content REST API endpoint in versions up to, and including, 1.8.3.

Technical Analysis
CVE-2023-1895 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), with a CVSS base score of 9.6.
The vulnerability has a "Changed" scope, meaning successful exploitation can impact components beyond the vulnerable component itself — such as the host operating system or adjacent services.
