CVE-2026-29206: CWE-89 SQL Injection in WebPros cPanel
CVE-2026-29206 is a high-severity SQL Injection vulnerability in WebPros cPanel affecting multiple versions. The issue arises from insufficient sanitization of SQL queries in the sqloptimizer utility script, which can be exploited if Slow Query logging is enabled. This vulnerability allows an attacker to perform SQL Injection with root user privileges, potentially leading to high impact on integrity and availability. There is no official patch or remediation level currently provided by the vendor, and no known exploits in the wild have been reported. The vulnerability affects a wide range of cPanel versions from 11. 30. 0. 0 through 11. 136. 0.
