CVE-2026-10039 shabti CVE debrief

A SQL injection vulnerability in the Frontend Admin by DynamiApps WordPress plugin allows authenticated administrators to extract sensitive database information. The flaw exists in the payment list administration page where the 'order' parameter is concatenated into SQL queries without adequate escaping or prepared statement usage. Exploitation requires both 'order' and 'orderby' parameters to reach the vulnerable code path. The issue affects all versions up to and including 3.28.28; version 3.29.3 contains patched code per repository tags. The CVSS 3.1 score of 4.9 (Medium) reflects the high privilege requirement (PR:H) that limits the attack surface to administrator-level accounts. No known exploitation in ransomware campaigns has been documented.

WordPress site administrators using the Frontend Admin by DynamiApps plugin; security teams managing WordPress installations with administrator-level access controls; database administrators responsible for monitoring unauthorized query execution

Technical summary

The Frontend Admin by DynamiApps plugin (also referenced as acf-frontend-form-element) contains a SQL injection vulnerability in the payment list administration interface. The 'order' parameter in main/admin/admin-pages/payments/list.php is incorporated into SQL queries without sufficient escaping or query preparation. Both 'order' and 'orderby' parameters must be present to reach the vulnerable execution path. The issue is classified as CWE-89 and was remediated in changeset 3472098, with patched code present in tag 3.29.3. Attackers with administrator-level authentication can leverage this to append arbitrary SQL and extract sensitive database information.

  • Implement Web Application Firewall rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns in 'order' and 'orderby' parameters
  • Review database query construction in custom admin list implementations for proper parameterization
  • Monitor database query logs for anomalous SELECT statements or unauthorized information extraction attempts
