Description
The FluentCRM Pro – Email Newsletter, Automation, Email Marketing, Email Campaigns, Optins, Leads, and CRM Solution plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.12 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 Author-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is a classic SQL Injection flaw present in all versions of the FluentCRM Pro WordPress plugin up to and including 3.1.12. It stems from insufficient escaping and the lack of prepared statements for a user‑supplied parameter, enabling an attacker who can authenticate as an Author or higher to inject additional SQL statements. The immediate consequence is the ability to read or potentially manipulate sensitive data stored in the WordPress database, such as customer information, email lists, and campaign records. The impact is limited to data exfiltration and alteration within the plugin’s scope; there is no evidence of remote code execution or system compromise based solely on the supplied description.

Affected Systems

All installations of the FluentCRM Pro – Email Newsletter, Automation, Email Marketing, Email Campaigns, Optins, Leads, and CRM Solution plugin for WordPress running versions 3.1.12 or earlier are affected. The vulnerability is present in the plugin’s underlying WordPress code base and does not appear in later releases beyond 3.1.12.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 6.5 the flaw represents moderate severity, and its EPSS score is not available. The issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Because the attack requires authenticated access with at least Author privileges, the likelihood of exploitation depends on the strength of the site’s user management and the number of users with such roles. An unauthenticated user cannot leverage the vulnerability alone, but an attacker who compromises a legitimate Author account or fulfills a social engineering goal can inject malicious queries directly into the plugin’s request flow. The absence of a publicly disclosed exploit does not reduce the risk, as the flaw is easy to exploit once the attacker has credentials.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the FluentCRM Pro plugin to the latest version (3.1.13 or newer) that addresses the SQL injection vulnerability.
  • If an upgrade cannot be performed immediately, restrict the Author role or configure the site’s role management so that users with Author or higher access cannot invoke the plugin’s vulnerable functionality.
  • After applying the fix or access restriction, verify that the plugin’s endpoints no longer accept user‑supplied parameters without proper sanitization by reviewing recent change logs or running code‑review tools.
