Subscriber SQL Injection in Cornerstone < 7.8.8 versions.

AnalysisAI

SQL injection in the Cornerstone WordPress plugin (Themeco) versions prior to 7.8.8 allows authenticated users with Subscriber-level access to inject SQL into backend queries. Per the CVSS vector (PR:L, scope changed, C:H), a low-privileged WordPress account can read sensitive database contents - including credentials and PII - across security boundaries, with limited availability impact and no integrity impact. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.

Technical ContextAI

Cornerstone is a commercial page-builder plugin for WordPress developed by Themeco, identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:themeco:cornerstone. The root cause is CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command), meaning user-supplied input reaches a SQL query without being properly sanitized or parameterized - typically via $wpdb queries that concatenate request parameters instead of using prepared statements with placeholders. Because WordPress's Subscriber role is the lowest authenticated tier (granted by default on sites allowing open registration), any AJAX or REST endpoint exposed to authenticated users that builds SQL from request input becomes reachable by attackers who merely register an account.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade Cornerstone to version 7.8.8 or later via the Themeco/WordPress plugin updater, which is the only complete fix; review the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/cornerstone/vulnerability/wordpress-cornerstone-plugin-7-8-8-sql-injection-vulnerability for advisory details. If immediate patching is not possible, compensating controls include disabling new user registration in WordPress Settings → General (trade-off: breaks public sign-up flows), demoting or removing untrusted Subscriber accounts, deploying a WAF rule (Wordfence, Patchstack, or Cloudflare) to block SQL-injection payloads on Cornerstone's AJAX/REST endpoints (trade-off: may produce false positives on legitimate page-builder traffic), and rotating WordPress secret keys plus forcing password resets if compromise is suspected, since SQLi at Subscriber level can exfiltrate password hashes.
