Description

The Bucketlister plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the plugin's shortcode `category` and `id` attributes in all versions up to, and including, 0.1.5 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameters and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

KEV Icon
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.

Executive Summary

The Bucketlister plugin for WordPress has a vulnerability known as SQL Injection in its shortcode attributes `category` and `id` in all versions up to and including 0.1.5. This happens because the plugin does not properly escape user-supplied parameters and does not sufficiently prepare the existing SQL queries.

As a result, authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access or higher can append additional SQL queries to the existing ones, potentially extracting sensitive information from the database.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can allow attackers who have at least Contributor-level access to the WordPress site to perform unauthorized SQL queries on the database.

The impact includes the potential extraction of sensitive information from the database, which could lead to data breaches or exposure of confidential data.

The CVSS score of 6.5 (medium severity) indicates that the vulnerability is exploitable remotely with low attack complexity but requires some privileges.
