CVE-2026-14475: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in wplegalpages Cookie Banner for GDPR / CCPA – WPLP Cookie Consent
The Cookie Banner for GDPR / CCPA – WPLP Cookie Consent plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'scan_id' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.3.6 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 administrator-level access and above, 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-2026-14475 describes an SQL Injection vulnerability in the Cookie Banner for GDPR / CCPA – WPLP Cookie Consent WordPress plugin affecting versions up to 4.3.6. The issue arises from improper neutralization of special elements in the 'scan_id' parameter, which is not properly escaped or prepared before being included in SQL queries. This flaw enables authenticated administrators to append arbitrary SQL commands to existing queries, potentially exposing sensitive database information. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-89 and has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 4.9, indicating medium severity. No vendor advisory or patch is currently available, and no known exploits are reported in the wild.
Potential Impact
An authenticated attacker with administrator-level access can exploit this vulnerability to perform SQL Injection attacks by injecting additional SQL queries via the 'scan_id' parameter. This can lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information from the database. The vulnerability does not affect confidentiality, integrity, or availability beyond data disclosure as per the CVSS vector (Confidentiality: High, Integrity: None, Availability: None).
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict administrator access to trusted users only and monitor for unusual database activity related to the 'scan_id' parameter. Avoid using vulnerable versions of the plugin if possible.
