Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in YITH YITH WooCommerce Product Add-Ons allows Blind SQL Injection.

This issue affects YITH WooCommerce Product Add-Ons: from n/a through 4.29.0.

AnalysisAI

Blind SQL injection in YITH WooCommerce Product Add-Ons (WordPress plugin) through version 4.29.0 allows high-privileged authenticated users to inject malicious SQL into database queries, leading to confidentiality compromise and limited availability impact across a changed security scope. The flaw was disclosed by Patchstack and carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 7.6; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability is rooted in CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command), meaning user-supplied input is concatenated into SQL queries without proper sanitization or parameterization. The affected component is the YITH WooCommerce Product Add-Ons plugin (CPE cpe:2.3:a:yith:yith_woocommerce_product_add-ons), an extension that enables WooCommerce store owners to add custom options, fields, and add-on products to WooCommerce listings on WordPress. Because exploitation is blind, the attacker does not receive direct SQL output and must infer query results from boolean/time-based response differences - typically by manipulating an injectable parameter within an authenticated plugin endpoint that passes input into a WPDB query without using $wpdb->prepare() or proper escaping.

RemediationAI

Patch available per vendor advisory; the Patchstack record indicates the issue affects versions up to 4.29.0, so administrators should upgrade YITH WooCommerce Product Add-Ons to the next vendor-released version above 4.29.0 as published on the plugin's WordPress.org page and confirm the installed build via Plugins → Installed Plugins. Until the upgrade can be applied, restrict high-privileged WordPress accounts (administrator, shop manager, and any custom roles granted plugin-management capabilities) to trusted personnel, enforce MFA on those accounts, and rotate any credentials those users could have exposed. As a compensating control, deploy a WordPress-aware WAF (Patchstack, Wordfence, or equivalent virtual patching) to block SQLi payloads against plugin endpoints - the trade-off is that overly aggressive rules can break legitimate admin operations that legitimately include SQL-like syntax. Audit database read access logs for unusual SELECTs originating from web-app user accounts and review the advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/yith-woocommerce-product-add-ons/vulnerability/wordpress-yith-woocommerce-product-add-ons-plugin-4-29-0-sql-injection-vulnerability for any vendor-recommended workaround.
