High CVSS 8.6
CVE-2026-12512
The Quotes llama WordPress plugin before 3.1.6 does not properly sanitize and escape a user-supplied parameter before using it in a SQL query, allowing unauthenticated attackers to perform UNION-based SQL injection and read arbitrary data from the database, including password hashes.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data. The impact spreads beyond the vulnerable component into other parts of the system.
- Weakness
- Unescaped input is placed into an SQL query, letting the attacker read or alter the database (SQL injection).
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
What to doFold into the next patch cycle. Start with the instances exposed to the internet.
