Unauthenticated SQL injection in the XStore WordPress theme before 9.7.3 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary SQL queries through an AJAX action that fails to sanitise and escape a user-supplied parameter. Publicly available exploit code exists per WPScan, and the changed scope (S:C) with high confidentiality impact indicates an attacker can extract sensitive data across security boundaries - including WordPress user records, password hashes, and configuration secrets - without any credentials or user interaction.

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | No authentication, no user interaction, and no special configuration are required - the vulnerable AJAX action is registered for unauthenticated users (wp_ajax_nopriv_*) and is reachable on default XStore deployments via /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Real-world risk is high. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker discovers an XStore-powered storefront through Wappalyzer or theme fingerprinting, then sends a single crafted HTTP POST to /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php invoking the vulnerable XStore AJAX action with a malicious UNION-based payload in the unsanitised parameter. The response leaks administrator password hashes from wp_users and the auth/secret keys from wp_options, which the attacker then cracks offline or replays to hijack admin sessions. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade the XStore theme to version 9.7.3 or later - this is the vendor-released patch and the only definitive fix; consult the WPScan advisory at https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/2c5bdb17-8b12-45b5-878b-627056dc8956/ and the NVD entry at https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-3326 for confirmation. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
