CVE-2026-5651 | BDVDB-2026-355276 Detail
2wstechnologiesAskeet — Talk to Your WooCommerce Data
Description#
The Askeet plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'sql_query' parameter in multiple AJAX actions (askeet_execute_sql_query, askeet_export_all_results) in all versions up to, and including, 3.0. This is due to the askeet_is_safe_query() filter being bypassable using MySQL conditional comments (e.g., /*!UNION*/). The filter strips regular block comments before checking for forbidden SQL keywords, but MySQL interprets conditional comments as executable code. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
Impact#
Per CVSS v3.1: confidentiality impact high, integrity impact none, availability impact none. Attack vector: network.
