Technical Analysis

CVE-2025-24780 is a high-severity SQL Injection vulnerability affecting the Printcart Web to Print Product Designer plugin for WooCommerce, versions up to and including 2.4.0. This vulnerability arises from improper neutralization of special elements used in SQL commands (CWE-89), allowing an attacker with at least low privileges (PR:L) to inject malicious SQL code remotely (AV:N) without requiring user interaction (UI:N). The vulnerability impacts confidentiality and availability, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.5, indicating a significant risk. The scope is changed (S:C), meaning the exploitation can affect resources beyond the initially vulnerable component. Specifically, the attacker can execute crafted SQL queries that may expose sensitive data (confidentiality impact is high), but integrity impact is not indicated, and availability impact is low. The vulnerability is present in a WordPress plugin used in e-commerce environments to enable product customization and printing workflows. No public exploits are currently known in the wild, and no patches have been linked yet. However, the vulnerability's characteristics suggest that exploitation could lead to data leakage or limited denial of service conditions on affected WooCommerce sites using this plugin. Given the plugin’s integration with WooCommerce, which is widely used in European e-commerce, the risk is material for online retailers relying on this plugin for product design capabilities.

Potential Impact

For European organizations, especially e-commerce businesses using WooCommerce with the Printcart Web to Print Product Designer plugin, this vulnerability poses a significant risk to customer data confidentiality and service availability. Exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive customer information, order details, or internal database contents, potentially violating GDPR requirements and leading to regulatory penalties. The availability impact, while low, could disrupt order processing or product customization workflows, impacting customer experience and revenue. Since WooCommerce is popular among small to medium enterprises across Europe, the threat could affect a broad range of organizations, from niche online retailers to larger enterprises using customized print-on-demand services. The vulnerability also raises concerns about supply chain security, as compromised e-commerce sites could be leveraged for further attacks or data exfiltration. The absence of known exploits in the wild provides a window for proactive mitigation, but the high CVSS score and ease of remote exploitation without user interaction underscore the urgency for European organizations to address this issue promptly.

Mitigation Recommendations

1. Immediate action should be to monitor official channels for patches or updates from the Printcart plugin vendor and apply them as soon as they become available. 2. Until a patch is released, restrict access to the plugin’s administrative interfaces to trusted IP addresses or VPNs to limit exposure. 3. Implement Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules specifically targeting SQL Injection patterns related to the plugin’s known parameters and endpoints. 4. Conduct thorough code reviews and penetration testing focusing on SQL injection vectors within the plugin’s integration points. 5. Employ principle of least privilege for database accounts used by the plugin, ensuring they have minimal permissions to reduce potential damage. 6. Enable detailed logging and alerting for suspicious database queries or unusual application behavior to detect attempted exploitation early. 7. Educate site administrators on the risks and signs of SQL injection attacks to improve incident response readiness. 8. Consider temporary disabling the plugin if the risk outweighs the operational need until a secure version is deployed.
