CRITICAL 9.8

DescriptionCVE.org

Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in ClickandPledge Click & Pledge Connect allows Privilege Escalation. This issue affects Click & Pledge Connect: from 25.04010101 through WP6.8.

AnalysisAI

SQL injection in the Click & Pledge Connect WordPress plugin allows unauthenticated attackers to escalate privileges and potentially compromise affected sites. The vulnerability exists in versions 25.04010101 through WP6.8 and carries a critical CVSS score due to its full technical impact and easy exploitability, though no public exploit or active exploitation has been observed.

Technical ContextAI

This is a CWE-89 SQL injection vulnerability in a WordPress plugin, which means user-supplied input is not properly neutralized before being used in database queries. The plugin operates within a PHP and MySQL environment, and an attacker can manipulate SQL queries to modify user privileges or extract sensitive data, leading to privilege escalation within the WordPress application.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch is currently identified in available intelligence. As an immediate mitigation, disable the Click & Pledge Connect plugin until a patched version is released. Apply a web application firewall (WAF) rule to block SQL injection attempts targeting the plugin's vulnerable endpoints, and restrict access to the WordPress admin area to trusted IPs. Monitor the Patchstack advisory for an updated fix.
