Description
The FluentCart A New Era of eCommerce – Faster, Lighter, and Simpler plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'products[*].variants[*].<attacker-chosen key>' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.0 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with custom-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. On FluentCart Pro installs, non-administrator users assigned the Manager shop role also hold the products/edit permission and are therefore able to exploit this vulnerability without administrator-level access.

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability in the FluentCart A New Era of eCommerce plugin allows an authenticated attacker to inject arbitrary SQL into queries through the use of unsanitized array keys in the 'products[*].variants[*].<key>' parameter. This flaw can be used to read arbitrary data from the database when the attacker has at least custom‑level access. On installations of the Pro version, users with the Manager shop role also possess the products/edit permission, allowing them to exploit the issue without administrator privileges.

Affected Systems

This flaw affects the WordPress plugin created by wpmanageninja called FluentCart A New Era of eCommerce – Faster, Lighter, and Simpler. All releases of the plugin through version 1.7.0 are vulnerable, including the 1.7.0 tag. No other product or version information is supplied.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 4.9 indicates a moderate severity. The EPSS score is not available, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Exploitation requires authenticated access; the ability to craft requests to the vulnerable endpoint is needed, and the attacker must have custom‑level or higher permissions. Because the flaw permits extraction of sensitive data, the impact could lead to data disclosure; however, there is no evidence in the input of further consequences such as code execution or denial of service.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the FluentCart plugin to any release newer than 1.7.0.
  • If an immediate upgrade is not feasible, disable or remove the 'products/edit' capability for Manager users to prevent the vulnerable action.
  • Apply a code fix that properly escapes the 'products[*].variants[*].<key>' parameter or modify the query to use prepared statements before execution.
