CVE-2025-7442 is an SQL Injection vulnerability classified under CWE-89 that affects the WPGYM - Wordpress Gym Management System plugin for WordPress. This vulnerability exists in all versions up to 67.8.0 due to improper neutralization of special elements in SQL commands. Specifically, several functions—MJ_gmgt_delete_class_limit_for_member, MJ_gmgt_get_yearly_income_expense, MJ_gmgt_get_monthly_income_expense, MJ_gmgt_add_class_limit, MJ_gmgt_view_meeting_detail, and MJ_gmgt_create_meeting—fail to properly escape or prepare user-supplied parameters before incorporating them into SQL queries. This lack of input validation and parameterization enables unauthenticated attackers to append arbitrary SQL statements to existing queries. As a result, attackers can extract sensitive information from the backend database, such as user data or configuration details, without needing credentials or user interaction. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable over the network (AV:N), requires no privileges (PR:N), and no user interaction (UI:N), making it highly accessible. The CVSS v3.1 score is 7.5 (high severity), reflecting the ease of exploitation and the impact on confidentiality. No patches or known exploits are currently documented, but the risk remains significant given the widespread use of WordPress and the plugin's functionality in managing gym-related data.

The primary impact of CVE-2025-7442 is the unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information stored in the WordPress site's database. This can include personal data of gym members, payment records, scheduling information, and other confidential business data managed by the WPGYM plugin. Such data leakage can lead to privacy violations, regulatory non-compliance (e.g., GDPR), reputational damage, and potential financial loss. Since the vulnerability does not affect data integrity or availability directly, attackers cannot modify or delete data or cause denial of service through this flaw alone. However, the exposed information could be leveraged for further attacks, such as phishing, identity theft, or privilege escalation. Organizations worldwide using this plugin are at risk, especially those that have not implemented additional security controls or timely updates. The ease of exploitation without authentication increases the threat level, making automated scanning and mass exploitation plausible if exploit code becomes publicly available.

1. Apply official patches or updates from dasinfomedia as soon as they are released to address the SQL Injection vulnerability. 2. In the absence of patches, implement a Web Application Firewall (WAF) with rules specifically designed to detect and block SQL Injection attempts targeting the vulnerable plugin functions. 3. Conduct a thorough code review and refactor the affected plugin functions to use parameterized queries or prepared statements, ensuring all user inputs are properly sanitized and escaped. 4. Restrict database user permissions to the minimum necessary, preventing excessive data exposure even if SQL Injection occurs. 5. Monitor web server and database logs for unusual query patterns or repeated access to the vulnerable endpoints. 6. Educate site administrators about the risks of using outdated plugins and encourage regular security audits. 7. Consider isolating the WordPress environment or using containerization to limit the blast radius of potential compromises. 8. Backup critical data regularly and verify restoration procedures to mitigate potential data loss from secondary attacks.
