CVE-2024-13481
Published: 19 February 2025
Description
The LTL Freight Quotes – R+L Carriers Edition plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'edit_id' and 'dropship_edit_id' parameters in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.4 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
Security Summary
CVE-2024-13481 is a SQL injection vulnerability in the LTL Freight Quotes – R+L Carriers Edition plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 3.3.4. The flaw arises from insufficient escaping of user-supplied parameters 'edit_id' and 'dropship_edit_id', combined with inadequate preparation of existing SQL queries, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL payloads. It has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) and is associated with CWE-89.
Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability remotely with low complexity and no user interaction required. By appending additional SQL queries to existing ones, they can extract sensitive information from the database, such as user credentials or other confidential data stored in WordPress sites using the plugin.
Wordfence advisories detail the vulnerability and its indicators, while WordPress plugins trac changeset 3241903 provides the patch addressing the SQL injection issue through improved parameter escaping and query preparation. Security practitioners should update to a patched version beyond 3.3.4 and scan for the affected parameters in plugin code.
