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 confidenceSQL Injection vulnerability in the CRM Perks Contact Form 7 HubSpot integration plugin (cf7-hubspot). The plugin fails to properly sanitize user input before using it in SQL queries, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL commands. This is a blind SQL injection, meaning attackers infer information from application behavior rather than seeing direct database output.

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.
-
Locate the cf7-hubspot plugin filesCheck your WordPress installation's wp-content/plugins directory for a folder named 'cf7-hubspot' or 'cf7-hubspot-integration'Affected if The plugin folder exists in the plugins directory
-
Determine the installed plugin versionOpen the main plugin file (usually cf7-hubspot.php) and locate the version comment/header, or check the WordPress admin plugins page for the installed versionAffected if The installed version matches the affected version range or cannot be determined (treat as potentially vulnerable)
-
Verify the HubSpot integration module is activeCheck WordPress admin under Contact Form 7 or plugin settings to confirm the HubSpot integration is enabled and configuredAffected if The HubSpot integration feature is turned on in the plugin settings
-
Inspect plugin code for unsanitized SQL queriesReview PHP files in the cf7-hubspot plugin folder, specifically looking for direct use of $_POST, $_GET, or $_REQUEST variables in SQL queries without proper escaping or prepared statementsAffected if The plugin code contains SQL queries that use user input without sanitization (wpdb->prepare, esc_sql, or parameterized queries are absent)
-
Check for unusual database activityReview WordPress debug logs (wp-content/debug.log if enabled) and database query logs for suspicious or unexpected SQL patterns originating from the pluginAffected if Blind SQL injection attempts or anomalous SQL queries are observed in logs
If the cf7-hubspot plugin is installed, active, and the version is within the affected range or cannot be verified, the environment is vulnerable to CVE-2025-68590.

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.
From vendor dataUpdate the cf7-hubspot plugin to the latest version. If no patch is available, disable the plugin until a fix is released. As a temporary measure, restrict access to the affected endpoints via web server configuration or WAF rules.
