CVE-2025-10649: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in uscnanbu Welcart e-Commerce
The Welcart e-Commerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the cookie in all versions up to, and including, 2.11.21 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied value and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-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-2025-10649 is an SQL Injection vulnerability in the Welcart e-Commerce WordPress plugin caused by improper neutralization of special elements in SQL commands. The issue stems from insufficient escaping of cookie input and lack of prepared statements, allowing authenticated users with Author-level privileges or above to inject additional SQL queries. This can lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive data from the database. The vulnerability affects all versions up to 2.11.21. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 6.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, and partial privileges required.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows authenticated users with Author-level access or higher to extract sensitive information from the database by injecting additional SQL queries. The integrity and availability of the system are not directly impacted, but confidentiality is compromised. There are no reports of known exploits in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict Author-level access to trusted users only and monitor for unusual database activity related to the plugin. Avoid relying solely on this plugin for sensitive data handling.
