CVE-2025-64371

Vulnerability

Overview

The Traveler WordPress theme, developed by shinetheme, contains a blind SQL injection vulnerability due to improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command. This flaw affects all versions of the theme from n/a through 3.2.5, with version 3.2.6 being the first to address the issue [1]. The vulnerability is classified as a SQL injection (CWE-89) and has been assigned a CVSS v3 score of 8.5, indicating high severity [1].

Exploitation and

Attack Surface

Attackers can exploit this vulnerability without requiring authentication, making it particularly dangerous for mass-exploit campaigns [1]. The blind SQL injection nature means that while the attacker cannot see direct output from the database, they can infer information through boolean-based or time-based techniques. The attack vector is network-based, with low complexity, meaning no special privileges or special privileges are needed [1].

Impact

Successful exploitation allows an attacker to interact directly with the underlying database. This could lead to the theft of sensitive information, including user credentials, personal data, and other stored content. Given the widespread use of the Traveler theme, the potential for large-scale data breaches is significant [1].

Mitigation

The vulnerability has been patched in version 3.2.6 of the Traveler theme. Users are strongly advised to update immediately. If updating is not possible, it is recommended to contact a hosting provider or web developer for assistance. The vulnerability is expected to be actively exploited in mass campaigns, so prompt action is critical [1].
