Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

The SAMO Forms WordPress plugin through version 1.0.0 fails to properly sanitize and escape user input before incorporating it into SQL queries in several actions that do not require authentication. The flaw is a CWE-89 SQL injection, permitting attackers to inject arbitrary SQL statements, enabling them to read sensitive data, alter stored information, or delete database records. The vulnerability does not grant code execution, but the impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the database is significant.

Affected Systems

All WordPress sites that have the SAMO Forms plugin installed at version 1.0.0 or earlier are affected.

Risk and Exploitability

The flaw can be exploited remotely with no authentication, and the associated CVSS score of 8.6 indicates a high damage potential. Although the EPSS score is less than 1%, the absence of authentication requirements and the high impact classifies the risk as high. The vulnerability is not present in the CISA KEV catalog; however,.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade SAMO Forms to the latest version.
  • If an upgrade cannot be performed immediately, use a web application firewall or server‑side rules to block or log suspicious SQL‑like input patterns on the plugin’s unauthenticated endpoints.
  • As a temporary measure, disable or require authentication for all features that submit data until a secure version is available.
