CVE-2025-49452 describes a SQL Injection vulnerability discovered in PostaPanduri, a WordPress plugin developed by Adrian Ladó. This flaw allows attackers to inject malicious SQL code into database queries, potentially leading to unauthorized data access and manipulation. The vulnerability affects versions from 0.0.0 up to and including 2.1.3. A fix is available in version 2.1.4.
Successful exploitation of this SQL Injection vulnerability could allow an attacker to bypass authentication mechanisms and gain unauthorized access to the PostaPanduri database. This could result in the exposure of sensitive user data, including email addresses, passwords, and other personal information stored within the plugin. Furthermore, an attacker might be able to modify or delete data, disrupt the functionality of the WordPress site, or even execute arbitrary commands on the server, depending on the database user's privileges. The impact is particularly severe given the potential for widespread compromise across WordPress installations using PostaPanduri.
CVE-2025-49452 was publicly disclosed on 2025-06-17. The vulnerability's CRITICAL CVSS score (9.3) indicates a high probability of exploitation. While no public proof-of-concept (POC) code has been released at the time of writing, the ease of SQL Injection exploitation suggests that it is likely to become a target for automated attacks. It is not currently listed on CISA KEV.

The primary mitigation for CVE-2025-49452 is to immediately upgrade PostaPanduri to version 2.1.4 or later. If upgrading is not immediately feasible due to compatibility issues or breaking changes, consider implementing temporary workarounds. These may include restricting database user privileges to the minimum necessary for PostaPanduri's operation, and implementing a Web Application Firewall (WAF) with rules to detect and block SQL Injection attempts targeting the plugin's endpoints. Regularly review PostaPanduri's configuration and ensure that all input validation and sanitization measures are properly implemented. After upgrading, confirm the fix by attempting a SQL Injection attack on a non-critical endpoint and verifying that the attack is blocked.
Update the PostaPanduri plugin to the latest available version to mitigate the SQL Injection vulnerability. Ensure you perform a full backup of your website before updating any plugin. Refer to the plugin documentation or the developer's website for specific upgrade instructions.
