CVE-2026-15275 wpexpertsio CVE debrief

Who should care

Defenders responsible for WordPress installations with the WP Multi Store Locator Pro plugin should assess exposure and prioritize verification and remediation. This includes operators managing WordPress environments, platform administrators, vulnerability management teams, and security teams responsible for monitoring and protecting against SQL injection attacks.

Why it matters

The WP Multi Store Locator Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL injection, allowing unauthenticated attackers to extract sensitive information from the database. Defenders should prioritize verification and remediation to prevent potential attacks.

• Unauthenticated attackers can extract sensitive information from the database.
• SQL injection attacks can be used to compromise the WordPress installation.
• Defenders need to verify and update the WP Multi Store Locator Pro plugin to prevent SQL injection attacks.
• Remediation priority is high due to the potential for sensitive information disclosure.

Technical summary

The WP Multi Store Locator Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'store_locatore_search_radius' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.5.1 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

Recommended defensive actions

• Verify and update the WP Multi Store Locator Pro plugin to the latest version.
• Implement additional security measures to prevent SQL injection attacks.
• Monitor for suspicious activity on the WordPress installation.
• Review compensating controls for exposed systems while remediation is scheduled and verified.
• Check relevant monitoring, detection, and logs for exposed assets that need extra review.
• Track exceptions, retest remediated assets, and close the item only after evidence is documented.
• Confirm whether affected product deployments exist in managed environments and assign an owner for follow-up.
