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 FunnelKit - Funnel Builder for WooCommerce Checkout plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based blind SQL Injection via the 'opid' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.13.1.5 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers 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 FunnelKit WordPress plugin fails to properly sanitize the 'opid' parameter before using it in a SQL query, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary SQL commands. The vulnerability is a time-based blind SQL injection, meaning attackers infer information from delayed responses rather than direct output. All versions up to 3.13.1.5 are affected.

MitigationUpdate the FunnelKit plugin to version 3.13.2 or later, which contains proper parameter escaping and prepared statement usage. Until patched, consider restricting access to the vulnerable endpoint or deploying a WAF rule to detect SQL injection patterns in the 'opid' 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. Check FunnelKit plugin version
    Log into WordPress admin and navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins > FunnelKit, or use WP-CLI: `wp plugin list --name=funnelkit` or inspect the plugin header in wp-content/plugins/funnelkit-bwf/functions.php
    Affected if The displayed version is 3.13.1.5 or earlier (any version below 3.13.2)
  2. Identify the vulnerable endpoint
    Locate PHP files that handle the 'opid' parameter and execute SQL queries. Search plugin files for 'opid' usage in database queries, typically in AJAX handlers or REST API endpoints under /wp-json/
    Affected if The endpoint processes the 'opid' parameter directly in a SQL query without prepared statements or escaping
  3. Verify parameter handling in code
    Inspect the code handling the 'opid' parameter - look for $wpdb->prepare(), parameterized queries, or sanitization functions like esc_sql() or intval() applied to the 'opid' value before SQL execution
    Affected if The 'opid' parameter is used in SQL queries without proper escaping, prepared statements, or type casting (e.g., not wrapped in intval() or not using $wpdb->prepare())
  4. Check for time-based response delay
    Send a crafted request to the affected endpoint with 'opid' parameter containing SQL sleep commands (e.g., opid=1 AND SLEEP(5)) and measure response time - a 5+ second delay indicates the vulnerability is present
    Affected if The server response is delayed by approximately 5 seconds or more, confirming the SQL injection executes arbitrary time-based commands

You are affected if the FunnelKit plugin version is 3.13.1.5 or earlier AND the endpoint handling the 'opid' parameter is accessible and processes it in unsanitized SQL queries.

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

Update the FunnelKit plugin to version 3.13.2 or later, which contains proper parameter escaping and prepared statement usage. Until patched, consider restricting access to the vulnerable endpoint or deploying a WAF rule to detect SQL injection patterns in the 'opid' parameter.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

FunnelKit - Funnel Builder for WooCommerce Checkout version 3.13.1.6 or latest available

  1. Navigate to WordPress dashboard > Plugins > Installed Plugins
  2. Locate 'FunnelKit - Funnel Builder for WooCommerce Checkout'
