LTL Freight Quotes WordPress Plugin Unauthenticated SQL Injection Vulnerability

A SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in the LTL Freight Quotes – Old Dominion Edition plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions through 4.2.10. The vulnerability arises from inadequate escaping of user-supplied parameters in the SQL query, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject additional SQL commands. This exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information in the database.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for SQL injection, where attackers can manipulate SQL queries to extract sensitive data from the database.

Reproduction

The vulnerability can be reproduced by sending a request to the WordPress site with the 'edit_id' or 'dropship_edit_id' parameters. These parameters can be crafted to include malicious SQL code that exploits the injection flaw. The lack of proper input validation and escaping in the plugin's SQL query handling creates the opportunity for this attack.

Remediation

Users are advised to update the LTL Freight Quotes – Old Dominion Edition plugin to version 4.2.11 or later.
