DASHBOARD BUILDER <= 1.5.7 - Cross-Site Request Forgery a Inyección SQL (SQL Injection)

The SQL Injection vulnerability in DASHBOARD BUILDER allows an attacker to inject malicious SQL code into database queries. By crafting a forged request, an attacker can trick a site administrator into executing this code, potentially gaining unauthorized access to the database. This could lead to the theft of sensitive information such as user credentials, financial data, or other confidential records. Furthermore, successful exploitation could allow the attacker to modify or delete data within the database, disrupting the functionality of the WordPress site. The impact is amplified if the database contains personally identifiable information (PII) or other regulated data, potentially leading to compliance violations and legal repercussions.

WordPress websites utilizing the DASHBOARD BUILDER plugin, particularly those with shared hosting environments, are at risk. Sites with weak administrator password policies or those that haven't implemented proper access controls are especially vulnerable. Legacy WordPress installations running older versions of PHP may also be more susceptible due to potential differences in SQL query parsing.

• wordpress / composer / npm:

The primary mitigation for CVE-2025-14615 is to upgrade to a patched version of the DASHBOARD BUILDER plugin as soon as it becomes available. Until a patch is released, consider implementing temporary workarounds. A Web Application Firewall (WAF) can be configured to filter out malicious SQL injection attempts. Specifically, rules should be created to block requests containing suspicious SQL syntax. Additionally, restrict access to the plugin's settings handler (dashboardbuilder-admin.php) to authorized administrators only. After upgrading, verify the fix by attempting to inject a simple SQL query through the plugin's shortcode and confirming that it is properly sanitized.
