Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 30.6th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified are NIST 800-53 RA-5 (Vulnerability Monitoring and Scanning) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation).

Deeper analysis

CVE-2024-13474 is a SQL injection vulnerability in the LTL Freight Quotes – Purolator Edition plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 2.2.3. The issue stems from insufficient escaping of user-supplied parameters 'dropship_edit_id' and 'edit_id', combined with a lack of sufficient preparation in the existing SQL query, allowing injection of malicious SQL.

Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability remotely with low attack complexity, as indicated by its CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N). By appending additional SQL queries to existing ones, they can extract sensitive information from the database.

The plugin's WordPress trac repository documents a fix in changeset 3244300, while Wordfence's threat intelligence provides further vulnerability details, including mitigation guidance.

Vulnerability details

The LTL Freight Quotes – Purolator Edition plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'dropship_edit_id' and 'edit_id' parameters in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.3 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.
