CVE-2026-2831: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in pierrelannoy MailArchiver
The MailArchiver plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the ‘logid’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.5.0 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-2026-2831 is an SQL Injection vulnerability in the MailArchiver plugin for WordPress affecting all versions up to 4.5.0. The issue arises from insufficient escaping and lack of proper preparation of the 'logid' parameter in SQL queries. Authenticated attackers with Administrator privileges can exploit this to append arbitrary SQL queries, potentially extracting sensitive data from the database. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.9, with network attack vector, low attack complexity, high privileges required, no user interaction, and impact primarily on confidentiality.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an authenticated administrator to extract sensitive information from the database by injecting additional SQL commands. There is no indication of impact on data integrity or availability. The vulnerability does not appear to be actively exploited in the wild based on current data.
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 queries related to the 'logid' parameter. Avoid exposing this plugin on publicly accessible environments without additional protective controls.
