CRITICAL 10.0REMOTEDOWNGRADE

CVE-2024-7854 is a critical-severity flaw (CVSS 10.0) affecting woo inquiry. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.

The Woo Inquiry plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection in all versions up to, and including, 0.1 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter 'dbid' 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.

Why this priority

  • Critical severity
  • EPSS top 9%: very likely to be exploited
  • Remotely exploitable, no login, no user action

No fix is published yet: follow the downgrade or mitigation steps.
