Exploitability
| CWE ID | Description |
|---|---|
| CWE-89 | The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data. |

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
This vulnerability is an SQL Injection in the PPOM – Product Addons & Custom Fields for WooCommerce plugin for WordPress. It occurs in the PPOM_Meta::get_fields_by_id() function due to insufficient escaping and lack of proper preparation of user-supplied input in SQL queries. This allows unauthenticated attackers to inject additional SQL commands into existing queries, potentially extracting sensitive information from the database. The vulnerability is exploitable only when the 'Enable Legacy Price Calculations' setting is enabled.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can allow unauthenticated attackers to extract sensitive information from the website's database by injecting malicious SQL queries. This could lead to data breaches, exposure of confidential customer or business data, and compromise of the website's integrity and trustworthiness.
How does this vulnerability affect compliance with common standards and regulations (like GDPR, HIPAA)?:
This vulnerability can negatively impact compliance with standards like GDPR and HIPAA because it allows unauthorized access to sensitive personal or protected health information stored in the database. Such data breaches violate data protection and privacy regulations, potentially leading to legal penalties and loss of customer trust.
How can this vulnerability be detected on my network or system? Can you suggest some commands?
This vulnerability can be detected by checking if the WooCommerce PPOM plugin version is up to and including 33.0.15 and if the 'Enable Legacy Price Calculations' setting is enabled. Since the vulnerability involves SQL Injection via the PPOM_Meta::get_fields_by_id() function, detection could involve monitoring for unusual SQL queries or attempts to inject SQL through product meta fields. However, no specific detection commands or network signatures are provided in the available resources.
What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?
Immediate mitigation steps include disabling the 'Enable Legacy Price Calculations' setting in the PPOM plugin to prevent exploitation. Additionally, updating the PPOM plugin to a version later than 33.0.15 when available will address the vulnerability. Restricting access to the plugin settings and monitoring for suspicious activity related to product meta fields is also advisable.
