Description

The Code Snippets WordPress plugin before 3.10.0 does not sanitise and escape a user-supplied parameter before using it in a SQL query in some of its snippet-migration import endpoints, which are accessible to any user holding site-administration capabilities; on a WordPress Multisite network those belong to subsite Administrators, allowing a subsite Administrator who is not a network Super Admin to perform UNION-based SQL injection against shared network tables and disclose network-wide data such as other users' password hashes.

Executive Summary

This is a SQL injection vulnerability in the Code Snippets WordPress plugin before version 3.10.0. It occurs because user-supplied parameters in SQL queries are not properly sanitized or escaped. Attackers with site-administration capabilities can exploit this to perform UNION-based SQL injection and access sensitive data like password hashes from shared network tables.

Detection Guidance

Check if the Code Snippets WordPress plugin version is below 3.10.0. Inspect network traffic for suspicious SQL queries or UNION-based attacks targeting snippet-migration endpoints. Review logs for unauthorized access attempts to shared network tables.

Impact Analysis

If you use the vulnerable plugin version, a subsite Administrator (not a network Super Admin) could exploit this to access network-wide sensitive data such as other users' password hashes. This could lead to unauthorized access to accounts and potential data breaches.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to personal data, violating GDPR's data protection principles and HIPAA's security requirements. It may result in non-compliance, legal penalties, and reputational damage due to data exposure.

Mitigation Strategies

Update the Code Snippets plugin to version 3.10.0 or later immediately. Remove site-administration capabilities from non-trusted users. Monitor network tables for unauthorized access or data exfiltration.
