CVE-2025-1311
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 · uneditedThe WooCommerce Multivendor Marketplace – REST API plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'id' parameter in the update_delivery_status() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.2 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 Subscriber-level access 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 confidenceThe WooCommerce Multivendor Marketplace REST API plugin has a SQL injection vulnerability in the update_delivery_status() function. The 'id' parameter is not properly escaped and the SQL query lacks prepared statements, allowing authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access to inject malicious SQL queries and extract sensitive data from the database.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm plugin installation and versionNavigate to WordPress admin > Plugins > Installed Plugins, locate 'WooCommerce Multivendor Marketplace' (or 'WooCommerce Marketplace' plugin), and note the installed version number.Affected if The installed version is below 1.6.3 (e.g., 1.6.2, 1.6.1, 1.5.x, etc.)
-
Verify REST API is accessibleMake a GET request to the site's REST API endpoint (usually /wp-json/ or /wp-json/wc/v3/) and confirm the API responds without being blocked by firewall or authentication rules.Affected if The REST API endpoint is publicly accessible or accessible to authenticated users with Subscriber role
-
Check for Subscriber-level user accountsIn WordPress admin > Users, review the list of users and identify any accounts assigned the 'Subscriber' role.Affected if At least one user account with Subscriber role exists in the system
-
Identify vulnerable endpoint exposureTest access to the update_delivery_status endpoint by examining plugin REST API routes (often at /wp-json/wvm/v1/delivery/status or similar path under the vendor marketplace namespace).Affected if The plugin's delivery status update endpoint is accessible to authenticated requests
-
Review API access controlsCheck WordPress REST API settings via plugin configurations or site settings to confirm whether subscriber-role users can make POST/PUT requests to the vendor marketplace API endpoints.Affected if Subscriber-level users are permitted to make API calls to vendor marketplace endpoints
You are affected if the WooCommerce Multivendor Marketplace plugin is installed with a version lower than 1.6.3 AND your REST API is accessible to users with Subscriber role.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedUpdate the plugin to version 1.6.3 or later which contains the fix. Until patched, consider restricting subscriber-level API access and monitor logs for suspicious SQL patterns.
Latest version after 1.6.2 (e.g., 1.6.3 or higher)
- 1. Log in to the WordPress admin dashboard
- 2. Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins
- 3. Locate the 'WooCommerce Multivendor Marketplace – REST API' plugin
- 4. Check the current version number to confirm it is 1.6.2 or below
- 5. If an update is available, click 'Update Now' to install the latest version
- 6. Alternatively, download the latest version from wordpress.org and upload it manually via Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin
- 7. After updating, verify the new version number in the Plugins list
