CVE-2024-13534
Published: 19 February 2025
Description
The Small Package Quotes – Worldwide Express 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, 5.2.18 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. CVE-2025-27268 is likely a duplicate of this issue.
Security Summary
CVE-2024-13534 is a SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in the Small Package Quotes – Worldwide Express Edition plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 5.2.18. The issue stems from insufficient escaping of the user-supplied 'edit_id' and 'dropship_edit_id' parameters combined with inadequate preparation of existing SQL queries, allowing injection of malicious SQL payloads.
Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability remotely over the network with low attack complexity and no user interaction required. Successful exploitation enables appending additional SQL queries to existing ones, resulting in the extraction of sensitive information from the database. 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) highlights the high confidentiality impact.
Advisories point to mitigation via a patch in WordPress plugin repository changeset 3241919, with additional threat intelligence available from Wordfence.
