CVE-2024-13531
Published: 12 February 2025
Description
The ShipEngine Shipping Quotes plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'edit_id' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.7 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-2024-13531 is a SQL injection vulnerability in the ShipEngine Shipping Quotes plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 1.0.7. The issue stems from insufficient escaping of the user-supplied 'edit_id' parameter combined with a lack of sufficient preparation in the existing SQL query, enabling injection of malicious SQL code.
Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability remotely with low complexity, requiring no privileges or user interaction. Exploitation allows appending additional SQL queries to existing ones, potentially extracting sensitive information from the database, as reflected in the 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 associated CWE-89.
Mitigation details are available in advisories from Wordfence and a patch committed in WordPress plugins trac changeset 3241894. Security practitioners should update the plugin to the fixed version beyond 1.0.7.
