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
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in AA-Team Amazon Native Shopping Recommendations allows SQL Injection.This issue affects Amazon Native Shopping Recommendations: from n/a through 1.3.

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 · moderate confidence

SQL Injection vulnerability in AA-Team Amazon Native Shopping Recommendations plugin allows attackers to inject malicious SQL commands through unsanitized user input. The vulnerability affects versions 1.3 and earlier, enabling remote attackers to potentially execute arbitrary SQL queries against the database.

MitigationImplement prepared statements/parameterized queries for all database operations and apply proper input validation and escaping for all user-supplied data before using it in SQL queries.

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. Identify if Amazon Native Shopping Recommendations plugin is installed
    Check the WordPress plugin directory for 'amazon-native-shopping-recommendations' folder, or list all installed plugins via wp-cli: wp plugin list --status=active --format=csv or check via WordPress admin plugins page
    Affected if The AA-Team Amazon Native Shopping Recommendations plugin is present and active in the WordPress installation
  2. Check installed plugin version
    Read the plugin header file (usually main PHP file or readme.txt) to find the Version field, or query via wp-cli: wp plugin get amazon-native-shopping-recommendations --field=version
    Affected if Version is 1.3 or earlier (1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, or any version below the fixed release)
  3. Identify if plugin handles user-supplied search or input parameters
    Review plugin source code for $_GET, $_POST, or $_REQUEST usage in SQL query contexts; check if search/browse features accept user input that could reach database queries
    Affected if The plugin processes user input (such as search terms, category filters, or URL parameters) directly into SQL queries without prepared statements
  4. Check for signs of SQL injection exploitation
    Review web server access logs for suspicious SQL patterns in requests to plugin endpoints (look for UNION SELECT, OR 1=1, common SQL injection payloads); check database for unexpected tables, modified admin accounts, or unauthorized data access
    Affected if Logs show SQL injection attempts targeting the plugin or database shows evidence of unauthorized SQL execution
  5. Verify input sanitization is absent in vulnerable code paths
    Examine plugin PHP files for direct variable interpolation in SQL strings (e.g., "SELECT * FROM ... WHERE term = '$term'") versus parameterized queries (PDO prepare, $wpdb->prepare)
    Affected if SQL queries concatenate user input directly without using $wpdb->prepare(), prepared statements, or input sanitization functions

The environment is affected if the AA-Team Amazon Native Shopping Recommendations plugin is installed with version 1.3 or earlier and the plugin processes user input into database queries without proper sanitization.
