AI Analysis

Impact

SAMO Forms WordPress plugin versions up to and including 1.0.0 fails to properly sanitize and escape user input before forming SQL queries in several unauthenticated actions. This flaw enables an attacker without authentication to inject arbitrary SQL commands, potentially extracting sensitive data, altering stored information, or compromising the entire database. No post‑exploitation code execution is required; the risk is limited to data integrity and confidentiality.

Affected Systems

Any WordPress site that has SAMO Forms plugin version 1.0.0 or older installed. No specific build numbers beyond the major/minor version are listed, so all releases of the plugin before 1.0.1 are vulnerable.

Risk and Exploitability

The vulnerability can be exploited remotely without user interaction, giving attackers direct access to the database layer. Although a publicly available exploit is not cited and the EPSS score is unavailable, the absence of authenticating requirements combined with the high-impact consequence classifies the risk as high. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, but its potential for data compromise warrants urgent attention.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade SAMO Forms to a version that sanitises and escapes all user input before including it in SQL queries.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately available, restrict access to the plugin’s unauthenticated endpoints using a web application firewall or server‑side rules that block or log suspicious SQL‑like input patterns.
  • Apply the plugin’s configuration to require authentication for all actions that submit data, or disable those features entirely until a security fix is released.
