CVE-2024-12332: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in jdsofttech School Management System – WPSchoolPress
The School Management System – WPSchoolPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'cid' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.14 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Student/Parent-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2024-12332 is an SQL Injection vulnerability in the WPSchoolPress plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 2.2.14. The issue is due to improper neutralization of special elements in the 'cid' parameter, allowing authenticated users with low privileges (Student/Parent-level and above) to inject additional SQL commands. This vulnerability can be leveraged to extract sensitive information from the database. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.5, reflecting a medium severity with network attack vector, low attack complexity, and requiring privileges. No patch or official remediation guidance is currently available.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows authenticated users with Student/Parent-level access or higher to perform SQL Injection attacks, potentially leading to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive database information. The vulnerability does not impact integrity or availability according to the CVSS vector, but confidentiality is rated high. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict access to the plugin to trusted users only and consider applying web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block SQL Injection attempts targeting the 'cid' parameter. Monitor for vendor updates regarding patches or official mitigations.
