VulnerabilityCVE-2024-1990cvecve-2024-1990cwe-89
Published: Tue Apr 09 2024 (04/09/2024, 18:58:52 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: metagauss
Product: RegistrationMagic – Custom Registration Forms, User Registration, Payment, and User Login

Description

The RegistrationMagic – Custom Registration Forms, User Registration, Payment, and User Login plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to blind SQL Injection via the ‘id’ parameter of the RM_Form shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 5.3.1.0 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.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2024-1990 is a blind SQL Injection vulnerability in the RegistrationMagic – Custom Registration Forms, User Registration, Payment, and User Login WordPress plugin. It affects all versions up to and including 5.3.1.0. The flaw is due to improper neutralization of special elements in the 'id' parameter of the RM_Form shortcode, allowing authenticated attackers with contributor-level privileges or higher to append malicious SQL queries. This can lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information from the database. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-89 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H).

Potential Impact

Successful exploitation allows an authenticated user with contributor-level access or above to perform blind SQL Injection attacks, potentially leading to full compromise of database confidentiality, integrity, and availability. This can result in unauthorized data disclosure, data manipulation, or denial of service conditions affecting the WordPress site using the vulnerable plugin.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict contributor-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or removing the RegistrationMagic plugin if possible. Monitor for vendor updates regarding patches or official mitigations.
