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 | No special conditions required - the vulnerable WP Fast Total Search plugin must be installed and active on the WordPress site. The search feature, which is typically accessible to unauthenticated users, directly handles the tainted parameter without sanitization, leading to exploitable SQL injection. No user interaction or elevated privileges are needed. |
| Impact | CVSS 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) indicates a remotely exploitable flaw with low attack complexity and no privileges required, impacting confidentiality only. However, EPSS data is not available, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, nor is any public exploit code known. Without confirmation of active exploitation or a proof-of-concept, the current real-world risk is moderate. The lack of authentication and low complexity make exploitation likely if an exploit emerges, but the absence of a patched version increases urgency for mitigation. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker sends a crafted HTTP request to a vulnerable WordPress site, injecting SQL payloads via the 'form_data[s]' parameter. The malicious query executes in the plugin's search database call, allowing the extraction of sensitive data such as user credentials or personal information without user interaction or prior authentication. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 28, 2026
Remote unauthenticated SQL injection in the WordPress WP Fast Total Search plugin up to version 1.80.280 allows attackers to extract sensitive database information via the 'form_data[s]' parameter. The flaw requires no authentication or user interaction, making it easily exploitable over the network. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been confirmed at this time.
RemediationAI
No patched version higher than 1.80.280 has been released by the vendor at this time. Users should immediately disable the plugin if it is not critical, or closely monitor for an update. A temporary compensating control is to block access to the search endpoint or disable the search feature entirely, though this will remove the plugin's core functionality. No official workaround has been published. Consult the Wordfence advisory for the latest fix status.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The WP Fast Total Search plugin for WordPress (slug 'fulltext-search') fails to properly escape user-supplied input passed through the 'form_data[s]' parameter before incorporating it into SQL queries. This insecurity occurs in the search functionality defined in fulltext-search.php and wpfts_search.php, leading to SQL injection (CWE-89). The vulnerability exists because the plugin does not use parameterized queries or sufficient escaping, allowing attackers to manipulate SQL logic.

DescriptionCVE.org
The WP Fast Total Search - The Power of Indexed Search plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'form_data[s]' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.80.280 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.
