PagBank and PagSeguro Connect for WooCommerce SQL Injection Vulnerability

A SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in the PagBank / PagSeguro Connect para WooCommerce plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions through 4.44.3. The vulnerability arises from inadequate escaping of user-supplied data in the 'status' parameter, allowing authenticated attackers with Shop Manager-level access or higher to inject additional SQL queries. This exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information in the database.

Impact

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

Reproduction

To reproduce this vulnerability, an authenticated user with Shop Manager-level access or higher can send a request to the WordPress site with the 'status' parameter. The plugin's SQL query handling will improperly process the injected SQL, allowing the attacker to append their own SQL commands and extract data from the database.

Remediation

Users are advised to update the PagBank / PagSeguro Connect para WooCommerce plugin to version 4.44.4 or later.
