CVE-2026-4087: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in samperrow Pre* Party Resource Hints
The Pre* Party Resource Hints plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'hint_ids' parameter of the pprh_update_hints AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.20. This is 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 Subscriber-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-2026-4087 is an SQL Injection vulnerability in the Pre* Party Resource Hints WordPress plugin (versions up to 1.8.20). The issue arises from improper neutralization of special elements in the 'hint_ids' parameter used in the pprh_update_hints AJAX action. Authenticated attackers with at least Subscriber privileges can exploit this to append malicious SQL queries to existing database queries, potentially extracting sensitive information. The vulnerability is due to insufficient escaping and lack of prepared statements in the plugin's code handling this parameter.
Potential Impact
An attacker with Subscriber-level access or higher can exploit this vulnerability to perform SQL Injection attacks, enabling unauthorized reading of sensitive database information. The vulnerability does not affect availability or integrity directly but compromises confidentiality. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict user privileges to the minimum necessary and monitor for suspicious activity related to the plugin. Consider disabling or removing the Pre* Party Resource Hints plugin if it is not essential.
