CVE-2025-10726: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in quantumrose WPRecovery
The WPRecovery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'data[id]' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.0. This is 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. Additionally, the result of this SQL injection is passed directly to PHP's unlink() function, allowing attackers to delete arbitrary files on the server by injecting file paths through the SQL query.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-10726 is a critical SQL Injection vulnerability in the quantumrose WPRecovery plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to 2.0. The vulnerability arises from improper neutralization of special elements in the 'data[id]' parameter, allowing attackers to append malicious SQL queries. The injected SQL query results are passed directly to PHP's unlink() function, enabling deletion of arbitrary files on the server. The vulnerability requires no privileges or user interaction and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.1, reflecting its critical impact on integrity and availability.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation can lead to high-impact consequences including unauthorized modification of database content and deletion of arbitrary files on the server. This compromises the integrity and availability of the affected system. The vulnerability can be exploited remotely by unauthenticated attackers, increasing the risk of widespread damage.
Mitigation Recommendations
