CVE-2026-13011: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in wedevs ERP: Complete HR, Accounting & CRM Suite Built for WooCommerce
The ERP: Complete HR, Accounting & CRM Suite with Recruitment and WooCommerce CRM Support plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'orderby' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.17.5 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with custom-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. Exploitation requires the erp_list_employee capability, which is granted to HR Manager-level users and above within the WP ERP plugin.
