Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires the WP Go Maps plugin (version before 10.1.04) to be installed and activated on a WordPress site, with the vulnerable parameter reachable via unauthenticated HTTP requests - no login session or user account is required per the CVSS PR:N rating. The high attack complexity (AC:H) and SSVC non-automatable classification indicate that exploitation cannot be trivially scripted across large numbers of targets simultaneously, and likely requires careful payload crafting or specific timing to succeed. Impact is strictly read-only against the vulnerable system's database (C:L, I:N, A:N), so attackers cannot modify or delete data through this vector alone. Exploitation is limited to WordPress environments running this specific plugin; sites not using WP Go Maps are entirely unaffected.

Impact

CVSS scores this at 3.7 (Low), driven primarily by AC:H (high attack complexity) and a confidentiality-only, low-severity impact (C:L/I:N/A:N) scoped to the vulnerable system (S:U). Despite the unauthenticated network vector (AV:N/PR:N/UI:N), the high complexity rating and SSVC's 'non-automatable' classification together indicate the attack cannot be trivially scripted at scale - suggesting a blind injection class or specific payload-tuning requirement. EPSS at 0.18% (7th percentile) corroborates low observed exploitation probability. A public POC is documented by WPScan, which is a meaningful escalation signal relative to an unexploited flaw, but this must not be conflated with confirmed active exploitation - no KEV listing exists. The practical risk is highest for WordPress deployments holding sensitive relational data (PII, e-commerce records, credentials) in the same database, and lower for purely informational sites. Overall, this is a real but non-critical priority: patch promptly in sensitive environments, and treat it as lower urgency for low-value-data deployments.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An unauthenticated attacker identifies a WordPress site running WP Go Maps prior to 10.1.04 and submits a crafted HTTP request - likely a GET or POST to a plugin-handled endpoint - injecting SQL syntax into the vulnerable parameter. After overcoming the high-complexity exploitation requirement (such as constructing a valid blind injection payload), the attacker iterates through database contents to extract WordPress user table records, including hashed passwords and email addresses. A public proof-of-concept documented by WPScan reduces the skill barrier for this attack.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 31, 2026

SQL injection in WP Go Maps WordPress plugin (all versions before 10.1.04) allows unauthenticated network attackers to read data from the underlying WordPress database by injecting malicious SQL syntax into an unsanitized plugin parameter. Reported by WPScan, a publicly available proof-of-concept exploit exists for this flaw; however, CISA KEV does not list active exploitation, and EPSS at 0.18% (7th percentile) indicates low observed exploitation probability in the wild. The SSVC framework's 'non-automatable' classification and the CVSS AC:H rating indicate that exploitation requires attacker effort beyond trivial scripting, moderating the real-world urgency despite the unauthenticated attack vector.

RemediationAI

Upgrade WP Go Maps to version 10.1.04 or later, which contains the vendor-released patch addressing this SQL injection. Updates can be applied through the WordPress admin dashboard under Plugins > Installed Plugins > Update, or by downloading the patched release from the WordPress plugin repository. The WPScan advisory at https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/9676af2f-8871-4715-b420-082b1afeb7b4/ confirms the fix version. If immediate patching is not feasible, deploying a Web Application Firewall rule targeting SQL injection patterns on the affected plugin's request parameters is a viable compensating control, though such rules may trigger false positives on legitimate map query traffic. Alternatively, if the map feature is not required on public-facing endpoints, temporarily disabling the WP Go Maps plugin eliminates the attack surface entirely, with the trade-off of removing all associated mapping functionality until the patch is applied.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The vulnerability is classified under CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command), a foundational SQL injection weakness where user-supplied input is incorporated into a database query without parameterization or proper escaping. The WP Go Maps plugin (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:unknown:wp_go_maps:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) interacts with the WordPress MySQL/MariaDB backend, likely via the WordPress wpdb abstraction layer. Failure to use wpdb->prepare() or equivalent parameterized query methods on a publicly accessible parameter is the probable root cause. WordPress plugin SQLi of this class typically targets GET or POST parameters processed during plugin shortcode or AJAX handler execution, allowing injection through unauthenticated front-end requests.
