High CVSS 8.6

CVE-2026-15205

NVD analysis in progress

The Paymob for WooCommerce WordPress plugin before 4.1.9 does not properly sanitise a client-supplied identifier before using it in a SQL query within its public, unauthenticated payment callback, and performs this query before verifying the payment provider's HMAC signature. This allows unauthenticated attackers to perform SQL injection and read arbitrary data from the database — including user credentials and other secrets — through both in-band (reflected) and time-based blind extraction.

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.
