Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The RapidResult plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 's' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.2. This is due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with contributor-level permissions and above to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The RapidResult WordPress plugin versions up to 1.2 contains a SQL injection vulnerability in the 's' parameter. The plugin fails to properly escape user-supplied input and does not use prepared statements, allowing authenticated users with contributor-level permissions or higher to inject arbitrary SQL queries and exfiltrate sensitive database content.

MitigationUpdate the RapidResult plugin to version 1.3 or later. If no update is available, disable the plugin until a fix is released. Alternatively, modify the vulnerable code to use $wpdb->prepare() with parameterized queries for the 's' parameter.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify RapidResult plugin is installed
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'RapidResult'. Alternatively, check the /wp-content/plugins/ directory for a folder named 'rapidresult' or check the plugin file headers in rapidresult.php for the version comment.
    Affected if The plugin is not installed or not present in the filesystem.
  2. Check installed plugin version
    If the plugin is present, open the main plugin file (usually rapidresult.php) and locate the 'Version' header in the plugin comment block. Compare this version number against the affected range (versions 1.2 and below).
    Affected if The installed version is 1.2 or lower.
  3. Confirm plugin is active
    In WordPress admin > Plugins, verify that RapidResult shows as 'Active'. Alternatively, query the wp_options table for option_name = 'active_plugins' and check if rapidresult/rapidresult.php is present in the serialized array.
    Affected if The plugin is active and the version is 1.2 or lower.
  4. Verify user roles with contributor access exist
    In WordPress admin > Users, review the list of user accounts. Check if any users have the 'Contributor', 'Author', 'Editor', or 'Administrator' role, as these all have equal or higher permissions than Contributor.
    Affected if At least one user account with Contributor-level permissions or higher exists on the site.

A user is affected if the RapidResult plugin is installed, active, and running version 1.2 or lower, AND at least one user with Contributor-level permissions or higher exists on the site (allowing the SQL injection to be exploited).

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Update the RapidResult plugin to version 1.3 or later. If no update is available, disable the plugin until a fix is released. Alternatively, modify the vulnerable code to use $wpdb->prepare() with parameterized queries for the 's' parameter.
