Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-18230 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown WP Directory Kit. 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-2026-18230/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18230/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-18230","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18230/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-18230","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-45m2-p8hx-pqw5"],"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":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can perform SQL injection via the section parameter in WP Directory Kit, allowing unauthorized database access.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"sql_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-89","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command"}],"description":"The WP Directory Kit WordPress plugin before 1.5.6 does not sanitise and escape a parameter before using it in a SQL statement through one of its authenticated AJAX actions, which lacks an authorization check, allowing any authenticated user such as a Subscriber to perform SQL injection attacks.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"WP Directory Kit \u003c 1.5.6 - Subscriber+ SQL Injection via section Parameter","id":"CVE-2026-18230","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"sql_injection","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WP Directory Kit \u003c 1.5.7 - Unauthenticated User Email Disclosure via select_2_ajax_user","id":"CVE-2026-18231"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Hyperscale Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2026-18228"},"products":["WP Directory Kit"],"published":"2026-08-12","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-12","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Authenticated users can perform SQL injection via the section parameter in WP Directory Kit, allowing unauthorized database access.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18230/"}
