Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
CVE-2026-28115 is a critical SQL injection issue in the WordPress WP Attractive Donations System plugin for Stripe and PayPal donations, affecting versions through 1.25. An unauthenticated attacker may be able to extract sensitive database information. No provided source confirms active exploitation.
Executive priority
Treat as urgent for any public WordPress site using this donation plugin. The main concern is potential exposure of database-held donor, user, or site data. Prioritize inventory and vendor-guided remediation over speculative testing.
Technical view
The issue is CWE-89 blind SQL injection in loopus WP AttractiveDonationsSystem. CVSS 3.1 is 9.3: network exploitable, low complexity, no privileges, no user interaction, changed scope, high confidentiality impact, low availability impact, and no integrity impact stated.
Likely exposure
Exposure is limited to WordPress sites running WP Attractive Donations System - Easy Stripe & Paypal donations versions up to and including 1.25. Internet-facing donation pages increase business risk because the CVSS vector requires no authentication or user interaction.
Exploitation context
The sources describe blind SQL injection but do not provide public exploitation evidence. The CVE is not listed as KEV in the provided data, so active exploitation should not be assumed from these sources alone.
Researcher notes
Patch status is not stated in the provided sources. The affected range is described as through <= 1.25, while the structured affected entry is sparse. Avoid assuming exploit availability; validate exposure by installed plugin and version.
Mitigation direction
- Inventory WordPress sites for the affected donation plugin and version.
- Check the vendor and Patchstack entry for fixed-version or mitigation guidance.
- Disable or remove the plugin if business operations allow until guidance is confirmed.
- Restrict unnecessary public access to donation endpoints where feasible.
- Ensure database and WordPress backups are current before remediation changes.
Validation and detection
- Confirm whether the plugin is installed on each WordPress site.
- Record the installed plugin version and compare against <= 1.25.
- Review web and application logs for unusual donation-plugin requests or database errors.
- Check security monitoring for alerts involving WordPress SQL injection patterns.
- Document remediation status and any compensating controls per site.
