Deeper analysis

CVE-2025-22639 is an SQL Injection vulnerability involving improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command, enabling Blind SQL Injection, as classified under CWE-89. It affects the Techspawn Distance Rate Shipping for WooCommerce Pro plugin (distance-rate-shipping-for-woocommerce-pro), impacting all versions from n/a through 1.3.4 inclusive. The vulnerability was published on 2025-02-18 and carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.5.

Low-privileged authenticated users can exploit this vulnerability remotely over the network with low attack complexity and no user interaction required. Exploitation results in high confidentiality impact through data extraction via blind SQL injection, low availability impact, no integrity impact, and a changed scope, allowing attackers to access sensitive database information beyond the plugin's intended privileges.

Affected Assets

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match
prevent

SI-10 directly requires validation and neutralization of user inputs to the WooCommerce plugin, preventing blind SQL injection exploitation via special elements in SQL commands.

SI-2 Flaw Remediation good match
prevent

SI-2 ensures timely identification, reporting, and remediation of the specific SQL injection flaw in Distance Rate Shipping for WooCommerce versions through 1.3.4.

AC-6 Least Privilege partial match
prevent

AC-6 enforces least privilege on database accounts used by the plugin, limiting the scope of sensitive data extraction even if blind SQL injection occurs.
