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

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

A SQL Injection vulnerability exists in the Spreadsheet Price Changer for WooCommerce plugin (versions <= 2.4.37) where user-supplied input is not properly sanitized before being used in SQL queries. An attacker could exploit this by injecting malicious SQL statements through unprotected input fields, potentially gaining unauthorized access to the database, exfiltrating sensitive data, or modifying application data.

MitigationUpgrade the plugin to a patched version as soon as one becomes available. In the interim, restrict access to the affected plugin's administrative interfaces and implement WAF rules to detect and block SQL injection attempts.

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 plugin installation
    Confirm whether the Spreadsheet Price Changer for WooCommerce plugin is installed in your WordPress environment. This can be done through the WordPress admin dashboard under Plugins, or by checking the plugins directory for a folder related to spreadsheet price changing functionality.
    Affected if The plugin is present in the WordPress installation
  2. Check installed version
    Retrieve the plugin version number from the plugin header in the main plugin file, or view it in the WordPress admin dashboard plugin list. Compare this version against the affected range: versions 2.4.37 and earlier.
    Affected if The installed version is 2.4.37 or lower
  3. Audit plugin input handling
    Identify which plugin features accept user-supplied input (such as price import fields, spreadsheet data upload, or settings inputs) and determine if those inputs are processed directly in SQL queries without proper sanitization.
    Affected if User input fields in the plugin are used to construct SQL queries without parameterized preparation
  4. Review for exploitation indicators
    Examine WordPress debug logs, server access logs, and database activity for suspicious SQL syntax, unusual query patterns, or evidence of SQL injection attempts targeting the plugin endpoints.
    Affected if Logs show malformed SQL statements or unexpected database queries originating from plugin functionality

You are affected if the Spreadsheet Price Changer for WooCommerce plugin is installed and its version is 2.4.37 or lower, since the vulnerability exists in how user input is handled in SQL queries.

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

Upgrade the plugin to a patched version as soon as one becomes available. In the interim, restrict access to the affected plugin's administrative interfaces and implement WAF rules to detect and block SQL injection attempts.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Latest available version on WordPress plugin repository (vendor should have released a version newer than 2.4.37 with the fix)

  1. 1. Log in to the WordPress admin dashboard
  2. 2. Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins
  3. 3. Locate 'Spreadsheet Price Changer for WooCommerce and WP E-commerce – Light'
