Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | No special conditions - remote unauthenticated exploitation against default installations of the GEO my WordPress plugin at version 4.5.5 or earlier, with no user interaction required per CVSS PR:N/UI:N. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N indicates network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated exploitation with no user interaction - the worst combination for prerequisites and a strong fit for opportunistic mass-scanning by botnets that routinely sweep WordPress installs. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker scans internet-facing WordPress sites for the GEO my WordPress plugin and sends a crafted HTTP request to a vulnerable geo-search endpoint, embedding SQL syntax in a location, distance, or filter parameter. The injection is concatenated into a backend query, allowing the attacker to extract administrator password hashes from wp_users and secret keys from wp_options without any authentication or user interaction. … |
