Deeper analysis

CVE-2026-32365 is an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability that enables Blind SQL Injection in the robfelty Collapsing Archives WordPress plugin, known as collapsing-archives. This issue affects all versions of the plugin from n/a through 3.0.7.

The vulnerability 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 it is exploitable over the network with low attack complexity by low-privileged users, such as authenticated WordPress subscribers or contributors, without requiring user interaction. Exploitation changes scope and primarily results in high confidentiality impact, allowing attackers to extract sensitive data from the database via blind SQL injection techniques, alongside low availability impact and no integrity impact.

Patchstack's advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/Wordpress/Plugin/collapsing-archives/vulnerability/wordpress-collapsing-archives-plugin-3-0-7-sql-injection-vulnerability?_s_id=cve documents the SQL injection vulnerability in Collapsing Archives version 3.0.7 for WordPress.
