CVE-2026-39479 is a Blind SQL Injection vulnerability in the Brainstorm Force OttoKit (SureTriggers) WordPress plugin, affecting all versions up to and including 1.1.20. The flaw stems from improper neutralization of special elements used in SQL commands (CWE-89), allowing authenticated attackers with administrator-level privileges to perform blind SQL injection attacks. The vulnerability was reported by researcher timomangcut on February 21, 2026, and published by Patchstack on March 23, 2026, with NVD receipt on April 8, 2026. It carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.6 (High), assessed by CISA-ADP (Patchstack).
The vulnerability is classified as CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command) and enables Blind SQL Injection, meaning the attacker cannot directly observe query results but can infer database contents through conditional responses or time-based techniques. Exploitation requires network access and high privileges (Administrator level), but no user interaction, and the scope is changed — indicating impact can extend beyond the vulnerable component itself. The attack vector is network-based with low complexity, making it straightforward to execute once the required privilege level is obtained (Patchstack).
Successful exploitation allows an attacker to interact directly with the WordPress site's underlying database, enabling extraction of sensitive information such as user credentials, API keys, and other confidential data stored in the database. The changed scope in the CVSS vector indicates that the impact can extend beyond the OttoKit plugin itself to affect the broader WordPress installation and its data. Integrity is not directly impacted per the CVSS assessment, but availability may be marginally degraded; the primary risk is high-confidence data exfiltration (Patchstack).
No public proof-of-concept exploit code or evidence of active in-the-wild exploitation has been reported for this vulnerability. The EPSS score is approximately 0.021%, indicating a very low probability of exploitation in the near term. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. Patchstack has classified this as low priority, noting it is unlikely to be exploited due to the high privilege requirement (Administrator access) needed to trigger the injection (Patchstack).
The vulnerability is patched in OttoKit (SureTriggers) version 1.1.21. WordPress site administrators should update the OttoKit plugin to version 1.1.21 or later immediately. Patchstack users can enable auto-update for vulnerable plugins as an additional safeguard. If an immediate update is not possible, restricting administrator access and monitoring database query logs for anomalous activity is advised (Patchstack).
Patchstack, which discovered and disclosed the vulnerability through its Active VDP program, classified the issue as low priority given the high privilege requirement. No notable independent researcher commentary, media coverage, or significant community discussion has been identified beyond the initial Patchstack advisory and standard CVE tracking sources (Patchstack).
