CVE-2025-1648: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in yawaveadmin Yawave
The Yawave plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'lbid' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.9.1 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.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-1648 describes an SQL Injection vulnerability in the Yawave WordPress plugin affecting all versions up to 2.9.1. The vulnerability arises from improper neutralization of special elements in the 'lbid' parameter, allowing attackers to append malicious SQL queries. This occurs because user input is not sufficiently escaped and the SQL query is not properly prepared, enabling unauthorized data extraction from the backend database. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable without authentication and does not require user interaction.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows unauthenticated attackers to extract sensitive information from the database by injecting arbitrary SQL commands. The vulnerability impacts confidentiality but does not affect integrity or availability according to the CVSS vector. No known active exploitation has been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, users should consider disabling the Yawave plugin or restricting access to the vulnerable functionality to trusted users only. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply patches promptly once available.
