An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-23488 exists.\n\nAffected product: Paid Memberships Pro WordPress Plugin. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23488/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23488/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-23488","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23488/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-23488","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pppw-hpjp-v2p9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can execute SQL commands via the order REST route, potentially reading or modifying database contents.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"sql_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"tenable","cpe":[{"product":"paid_memberships_pro","vendor":"strangerstudios"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-89","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command"}],"description":"The Paid Memberships Pro WordPress Plugin, version \u003c 2.9.8, is affected by an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability in the 'code' parameter of the '/pmpro/v1/order' REST route.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2023-01-12","github_poc":2,"max_poc_stars":1,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":"2023-06-07T17:30:25Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/cybfar/CVE-2023-23488-pmpro-2.8","stars":1,"title":"Paid Memberships Pro  v2.9.8 (WordPress Plugin) - Unauthenticated SQL Injection"},{"date":"2023-01-12","kind":"metasploit","ref":"auxiliary/scanner/http/wp_paid_membership_pro_code_sqli","stars":null,"title":"Wordpress Paid Membership Pro code Unauthenticated SQLi"},{"date":"2023-02-02T05:28:09Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/long-rookie/CVE-2023-23488-PoC","stars":0,"title":"Unauthenticated SQL Injection - Paid Memberships Pro \u003c 2.9.8 (WordPress Plugin)"},{"date":"2023-04-03","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"51235","stars":null,"title":"Paid Memberships Pro  v2.9.8 (WordPress Plugin) - Unauthenticated SQL Injection"},{"date":null,"kind":"nuclei","ref":"http/cves/2023/CVE-2023-23488.yaml","stars":null,"title":"WordPress Paid Memberships Pro \u003c2.9.8 - Blind SQL Injection"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"SQL injection in Paid Memberships Pro WordPress Plugin","id":"CVE-2023-23488","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"sql_injection","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"SQL injection in Easy Digital Downloads WordPress Plugin","id":"CVE-2023-23489"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"IBM Db2 audit logging","id":"CVE-2023-23487"},"products":["Paid Memberships Pro WordPress Plugin"],"published":"2023-01-20","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Paid Memberships Pro \u003c 2.6.7 - Unauthenticated Blind SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2021-25114","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-07"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Paid Memberships Pro \u003c 2.9.12 - Subscriber+ SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2023-0631","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-20"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"SQL injection in Paid Memberships Pro","id":"CVE-2021-20678","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-03-18"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"WordPress Paid Memberships Pro plugin \u003c= 3.0.5 - Authenticated SQL Injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-37486","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-09"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"WordPress Paid Memberships Pro plugin \u003c= 3.0.4 - Insecure Direct Object References (IDOR) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-37277","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-01"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Paid Memberships Pro \u003c= 2.12.3 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Arbitrary File Upload","id":"CVE-2023-6187","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-18"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"BSD-3-Clause","name":"Metasploit"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"MIT","name":"Nuclei templates"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-04-03","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can execute SQL commands via the order REST route, potentially reading or modifying database contents.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-23488/"}
