Squirrly · Seo Plugin · CVE-2025-1768
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
The SEO Plugin by Squirrly SEO plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 12.4.05
**Description**
The issue is related to blind SQL Injection via the `search` parameter due to insufficient escaping on the user-supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This allows authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries, which can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
**Recommendations**
For versions up to, and including, 12.4.05, consider restricting access to the `search` parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, limit Subscriber-level access and above to reduce the potential attack surface.
