Deeper analysis
CVE-2025-23911 is an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability, classified under CWE-89. It affects the Solidres – Hotel booking plugin for WordPress, with the issue present from n/a through version 0.9.4. The vulnerability was published on 2025-01-16T21:15:32.780 and carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:L).
Low-privileged remote attackers (PR:L) can exploit this vulnerability over the network (AV:N) with low attack complexity (AC:L) and no user interaction (UI:N). Successful exploitation leads to a scope change (S:C), enabling high confidentiality impact (C:H) such as unauthorized data access, alongside low availability impact (A:L) and no integrity impact (I:N).

SI-10 directly prevents SQL injection by requiring validation of user inputs before processing in SQL commands, neutralizing special elements as in this Solidres plugin vulnerability.
SI-2 mandates identification and correction of the specific SQL injection flaw in Solidres plugin versions through 0.9.4, eliminating the vulnerability.
SI-9 restricts malicious SQL input payloads through defined limits on information inputs, reducing the attack surface for low-privileged exploitation.
