CVE-2024-13680: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in codepeople Form Builder CP
The Form Builder CP plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'id' parameter of the 'CP_EASY_FORM_WILL_APPEAR_HERE' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.41 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 Contributor-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-2024-13680 is an SQL Injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in the Form Builder CP WordPress plugin affecting all versions up to 1.2.41. The issue arises from improper neutralization of special elements in the 'id' parameter of the 'CP_EASY_FORM_WILL_APPEAR_HERE' shortcode, allowing authenticated users with Contributor-level privileges or higher to append malicious SQL queries. This is due to insufficient escaping of user-supplied input and lack of prepared statements in the SQL query construction. Exploitation can lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive database information. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 score of 6.5 (medium severity), with network attack vector, low attack complexity, and requires privileges but no user interaction.
Potential Impact
An attacker with Contributor-level or higher access can exploit this vulnerability to perform SQL Injection attacks, enabling extraction of sensitive information from the database. 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 as of the published date.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no patch or official fix information is provided, users should monitor the vendor's communications for updates. Until a fix is available, restrict Contributor-level access to trusted users and consider disabling or removing the Form Builder CP plugin if possible to reduce risk.
