Unauthenticated SQL Injection in GPTranslate - Multilingual AI Translation for WordPress: Automatically Translate Websites <= 2.32.6 versions.
Articles & Coverage 1
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated SQL injection in the GPTranslate - Multilingual AI Translation for WordPress plugin (versions 2.32.6 and earlier) by jExtensions Store allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary SQL into backend database queries without credentials or user interaction. The CVSS 9.3 score reflects a scope change with high confidentiality impact and low availability impact, indicating data exposure beyond the plugin's own context. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the unauthenticated nature and WordPress plugin attack surface make this a high-priority patch.
Technical ContextAI
GPTranslate is a WordPress plugin developed by jExtensions Store that provides AI-driven multilingual translation for WordPress sites, automatically translating site content into multiple languages. The vulnerability is classified as CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command), meaning user-controllable input is concatenated into SQL queries without proper sanitization or parameterization - typically via $wpdb->query() or direct database calls that bypass WordPress's prepared statement APIs. The affected CPE (cpe:2.3:a:jextensions_store:gptranslate...) confirms the vendor is jExtensions Store, and because the plugin operates within the WordPress runtime, a successful injection executes against the WordPress database containing wp_users, wp_options, and other sensitive tables.
RemediationAI
Upstream fix available per Patchstack advisory; released patched version not independently confirmed from the provided data, so administrators should consult the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/gptranslate/vulnerability/wordpress-gptranslate-multilingual-ai-translation-for-wordpress-automatically-translate-websites-plugin-2-32-6-sql-injection-vulnerability) and the WordPress plugin repository for the exact fix release above 2.32.6 and upgrade immediately. If patching cannot be performed promptly, deactivate and remove the GPTranslate plugin entirely - the trade-off is losing automated multilingual translation functionality, which may break translated frontend pages. As a temporary compensating control, deploy a WAF rule (Wordfence, Patchstack mitigation, or Cloudflare managed rules) to block SQLi patterns targeting the plugin's REST/AJAX endpoints, accepting that custom payloads may bypass generic signatures; additionally restrict access to wp-admin/admin-ajax.php and the plugin's frontend endpoints by IP allowlist where feasible.
