DescriptionCVE.org

The Total Donations plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.5 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

AnalysisAI

SQL injection in the Total Donations WordPress plugin (all versions through 2.0.5) lets unauthenticated remote attackers inject additional SQL into existing queries to read arbitrary database contents, including user credentials and secrets. The flaw stems from an unescaped, unprepared user-supplied parameter and carries a 9.8 CVSS. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires only that the Total Donations plugin (version ≤ 2.0.5) be installed and active on a network-reachable WordPress site, with the vulnerable request handler exposed - the default posture for a public WordPress installation. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The signals point to a genuine high priority rather than an inflated CVSS. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker discovers a WordPress site running Total Donations and sends a crafted HTTP request that appends a UNION-based sub-query to the vulnerable, unprepared parameter. With no authentication or user interaction required, the injected query returns admin password hashes and secret keys directly in the response, which the attacker then cracks or replays to take over the site. …
Remediation No vendor-released patch version is identified in the available data, so a specific upgrade target cannot be confirmed - the input only establishes that all versions through 2.0.5 are affected. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all WordPress installations running Total Donations plugin v2.0.5 or earlier and disable the plugin immediately; simultaneously review database access logs from the past 30 days for indicators of exploitation. …
