CVE-2025-32643: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in mojoomla WPGYM
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in mojoomla WPGYM allows Blind SQL Injection. This issue affects WPGYM: from n/a through 65.0.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-32643 is a critical SQL Injection vulnerability (CWE-89) identified in the mojoomla WPGYM plugin, affecting versions up to 65.0. The vulnerability arises from improper neutralization of special elements in SQL commands, enabling an attacker to perform Blind SQL Injection attacks. Blind SQL Injection allows an attacker to infer data from the database by sending crafted queries and analyzing the application's response behavior, even when direct data output is not available. The CVSS 3.1 score of 9.3 reflects a critical severity due to the vulnerability's network attack vector (AV:N), low attack complexity (AC:L), no privileges required (PR:N), no user interaction (UI:N), and a scope change (S:C) indicating that exploitation can affect resources beyond the vulnerable component. The impact on confidentiality is high (C:H), while integrity is not affected (I:N), and availability impact is low (A:L). Although no known exploits are currently reported in the wild, the vulnerability's characteristics make it a prime target for attackers seeking to extract sensitive data from backend databases without authentication. The lack of available patches at the time of publication increases the urgency for mitigation. The vulnerability affects the WPGYM plugin, which is used in WordPress environments to manage gym and fitness-related content and services. Attackers exploiting this vulnerability could extract sensitive user data, including personal and possibly payment information, leading to privacy breaches and regulatory non-compliance risks.
Potential Impact
For European organizations using the mojoomla WPGYM plugin, this vulnerability poses a significant risk to data confidentiality and privacy. Exploitation could lead to unauthorized disclosure of personal data, including customer and employee information, which would contravene GDPR requirements and potentially result in substantial fines and reputational damage. The fitness and wellness sector, which often handles sensitive health-related data, is particularly vulnerable. Additionally, the compromise of backend databases could facilitate further attacks, such as privilege escalation or lateral movement within organizational networks. The critical severity and ease of exploitation without authentication mean that attackers can remotely target vulnerable systems at scale, increasing the likelihood of widespread data breaches. Organizations relying on WPGYM for their online presence or customer management must consider the risk of service disruption and loss of customer trust, which could have long-term business impacts.
Mitigation Recommendations
Given the absence of an official patch at the time of disclosure, European organizations should implement immediate compensating controls. These include deploying Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting WPGYM endpoints. Organizations should audit and restrict database permissions for the WPGYM plugin to the minimum necessary, limiting the potential impact of a successful injection. Monitoring and logging of database queries and web application traffic should be enhanced to detect anomalous activities indicative of exploitation attempts. Where possible, temporarily disabling or removing the WPGYM plugin until a patch is released is advisable. Organizations should also conduct thorough code reviews and penetration testing focused on SQL injection vectors within their WordPress environments. Finally, maintaining up-to-date backups and preparing incident response plans specific to data breaches involving SQL injection will improve resilience.
