WordPress vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Overview

The CVE-2025-30886 is a SQL Injection vulnerability discovered in the JoomSky JS Help Desk WordPress plugin. The vulnerability was identified on March 27, 2025, affecting versions up to and including 2.9.2. This security flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to perform SQL injection attacks due to insufficient escaping of user-supplied parameters and inadequate preparation of SQL queries (Patchstack, WPScan).

Technical details

The vulnerability is classified as CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command) and has received a Critical CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.3 with the vector string CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:L. The technical nature of the flaw allows attackers to append additional SQL queries to existing ones, potentially enabling the extraction of sensitive information from the database (Patchstack).

Impact

The vulnerability is considered highly dangerous and expected to become mass exploited. It allows malicious actors to directly interact with the database, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive information. The unauthenticated nature of the exploit makes it particularly severe as it requires no prior authentication to execute (Patchstack).

Mitigation and workarounds

The vulnerability has been patched in version 2.9.3 of the JS Help Desk plugin. Users are strongly advised to update to this version or later immediately. For users unable to update immediately, Patchstack has issued a virtual patch to mitigate this issue by blocking potential attacks (Patchstack).
