Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | No special conditions - remote unauthenticated exploitation against any default WordPress installation that has the WP Maps plugin (versions ≤ 4.9.1) installed and activated, reachable over HTTP/HTTPS. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Real-world risk is high. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker sends a single crafted HTTP request to a public-facing WordPress site running WP Maps ≤ 4.9.1, injecting a UNION SELECT or time-based payload into a vulnerable plugin parameter to extract wp_users password hashes and authentication keys from wp_options. The attacker then cracks the administrator hash offline (or replays session cookies) to log in as admin, upload a malicious plugin, and achieve full site takeover. … |
| Remediation | Upstream fix available per Patchstack advisory; released patched version not independently confirmed from the supplied data - administrators should upgrade WP Maps to the latest version above 4.9.1 published on the WordPress.org plugin repository and verify the fixed release number against the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/wp-google-map-plugin/vulnerability/wordpress-wp-maps-plugin-4-9-1-sql-injection-vulnerability. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
