MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Persistence The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires an authenticated low-privilege WordPress account at Subscriber level or above (CVSS PR:L), obtainable through the site's registration flow - which on marketplace deployments is frequently open by default, lowering the barrier. Beyond a valid account, the attacker needs network access to the vulnerable Dokan Pro request handler and no user interaction (UI:N). Limiting factors: the high attack complexity (AC:H) indicates the injection is not trivially triggerable and likely demands crafted or blind payloads, and sites that disable open registration or require manual account approval remove the prerequisite foothold entirely. The specific vulnerable parameter/endpoint is not disclosed in the provided data and should be confirmed from the Patchstack advisory. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:L yields 7.1 (High): network-reachable and requiring no user interaction, but with high attack complexity and low-privilege authentication (PR:L). The PR:L requirement is meaningful - on many WordPress marketplaces registration is open, so obtaining a Subscriber account is often trivial, which partially offsets the AC:H rating. Impact is weighted toward confidentiality (C:H) with a scope change (S:C), consistent with reading data outside the plugin's authorization context; integrity is unaffected (I:N) and availability impact is limited (A:L). EPSS and KEV data were not provided in the intelligence set, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified and there is no evidence of active exploitation. No POC was supplied. Overall this is a credible priority for any live multivendor Dokan Pro store with open registration, but the absence of KEV/EPSS/POC signals suggests it is not yet under mass exploitation - patch on a normal-to-expedited cycle. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker registers a free Subscriber (or vendor) account on a Dokan Pro-powered marketplace with open registration, then sends crafted requests to the vulnerable plugin endpoint embedding SQL payloads in a parameter. Exploiting the injection over the network (AV:N) without any user interaction, they enumerate and exfiltrate database contents beyond their authorization scope, including customer records and WordPress user password hashes. No public POC was provided, and the high attack complexity (AC:H) implies the payload requires some tailoring, such as a blind/time-based technique. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 23, 2026
Authenticated SQL injection in the Dokan Pro WordPress multivendor marketplace plugin (versions <= 5.0.2) allows a low-privileged Subscriber-level user to inject malicious SQL into backend database queries, enabling extraction of sensitive data across the WordPress store. Reported by Patchstack and rated CVSS 7.1, the scope-changed vector reflects that a compromised low-tier account can reach data beyond its own authorization boundary. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
RemediationAI
Upgrade Dokan Pro to a version later than 5.0.2 (the next maintenance release above 5.0.2); the exact fixed version is not stated in the provided intelligence, so consult the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/dokan-pro/vulnerability/wordpress-dokan-pro-plugin-5-0-2-sql-injection-vulnerability?_s_id=cve) and the WeDevs/Dokan changelog to confirm the patched build before deploying. Until patched, reduce exposure by disabling open self-registration or gating new Subscriber/vendor accounts behind manual approval to remove the low-privileged foothold the exploit needs (side effect: adds friction to legitimate vendor onboarding). Deploy a WAF or the Patchstack virtual patch with a rule targeting the vulnerable endpoint to block SQL metacharacters (side effect: possible false positives on legitimate store queries), and restrict or monitor access to the affected Dokan Pro request path. Because this is a data-confidentiality issue, also rotate WordPress secrets and, if compromise is suspected, force password resets since wp_users hashes may have been exposed.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Dokan Pro is the commercial extension of the widely used Dokan multivendor marketplace plugin for WordPress/WooCommerce, adding vendor storefronts, subscriptions, and reporting features. The root cause is CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command): user-controllable input reaching a database query is concatenated without adequate parameterization or sanitization via WordPress's $wpdb prepared-statement API. The affected component is identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:dokan:dokan_pro (all versions through 5.0.2). Because WordPress plugins share a single database with the core CMS, an injection point in a plugin query can expose core tables (e.g., wp_users, wp_usermeta) containing password hashes and session/auth data.

DescriptionCVE.org
Subscriber SQL Injection in Dokan Pro <= 5.0.2 versions.
Executive ViewAI
Dokan Pro marketplace software (versions 5.0.2 and earlier) contains a vulnerability allowing lower-level user accounts to access confidential data across the entire WordPress marketplace, including customer information and vendor details. Exploitation requires account access but could be leveraged by employees, partners, or compromised low-tier accounts to exfiltrate sensitive business and customer data. Organizations using affected versions face immediate data breach risk, customer notification obligations, and potential regulatory penalties.
Implement database-level privilege restrictions limiting the WordPress database user to only required tables and minimal operations; deploy web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting Dokan Pro input fields; restrict or disable Subscriber-level user registrations until a patch is available; maintain comprehensive database query logging with real-time alerts for anomalous data access from low-privilege accounts; establish daily monitoring of vendor security channels for emergency patches or workarounds.
