Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
CVE-2024-51601 is a SQL injection flaw in the WordPress Website price calculator plugin, affecting versions up to and including 4.1. An attacker with low-level access could query or expose sensitive database information. Public sources rate it high severity. No cited source states active exploitation.
Executive priority
Treat as a high-priority WordPress plugin issue if the plugin is deployed. The main business risk is unauthorized database exposure from a public-facing site. Prioritize inventory, version confirmation, and vendor-guided remediation, but do not assume active exploitation without additional evidence.
Technical view
The flaw is CWE-89 improper neutralization of SQL elements in Maksym Marko Website price calculator, package price-calculator-to-your-website. CVSS 3.1 is 8.5: network exploitable, low complexity, low privileges required, no user interaction, changed scope, high confidentiality impact, low availability impact, and no integrity impact.
Likely exposure
WordPress sites running Website price calculator plugin versions <= 4.1 are potentially exposed, especially where untrusted or low-privilege accounts exist.
Exploitation context
The CVSS vector indicates remote exploitation over the network with low privileges and no user interaction. Sources do not provide exploit details, proof-of-concept status, or evidence of active exploitation. The CVE is not listed as KEV in the provided bundle.
Researcher notes
Evidence is limited to the CVE record and Patchstack entry. The affected range is stated as through <= 4.1. No source in the bundle names a patched version, workaround, exploit publication, or observed exploitation. Avoid inferring broader product impact beyond this WordPress plugin.
Mitigation direction
- Inventory WordPress sites for the Website price calculator plugin.
- Identify installed plugin versions and flag versions 4.1 or earlier.
- Check Patchstack and vendor guidance for fixed versions or official remediation.
- Restrict or remove unnecessary low-privilege WordPress accounts until remediated.
- Back up the site and database before applying plugin changes.
Validation and detection
- Confirm whether price-calculator-to-your-website is installed on each WordPress instance.
- Record plugin version from WordPress administration or asset inventory.
- Review database and web logs for unusual plugin-related requests.
- Verify remediation against Patchstack or vendor-published guidance.
- Monitor for new CVE, Patchstack, or WordPress plugin repository updates.
