Deeper analysis

CVE-2026-24367 is an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability that enables Blind SQL Injection in the shinetheme Traveler WordPress theme. This issue affects Traveler versions from n/a through those prior to 3.2.8 and was published on 2026-01-22T17:16:40.183. It is associated with CWE-89 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), indicating high severity due to network accessibility and significant confidentiality impact.

Low-privileged users (PR:L) can exploit this vulnerability remotely over the network with low complexity and no user interaction required. Exploitation changes the scope (S:C) and primarily results in high confidentiality impact (C:H), allowing attackers to extract sensitive data from the database via blind SQL injection techniques, while integrity impact is none (I:N) and availability impact is low (A:L).

The Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/Wordpress/Theme/traveler/vulnerability/wordpress-traveler-theme-3-2-8-sql-injection-vulnerability?_s_id=cve details the vulnerability in the WordPress Traveler theme and indicates mitigation by updating to version 3.2.8, as the issue affects versions prior to this release.
