CVE-2026-12077
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 Dokan Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via the via 'latitude' and 'longitude' parameters in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.4 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 confidenceThe Dokan Pro WordPress plugin versions up to 5.0.4 contains a time-based SQL injection vulnerability in the 'latitude' and 'longitude' parameters. Unauthenticated attackers can exploit insufficient input escaping combined with unprepared SQL queries to inject malicious SQL code 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.
-
Check Dokan Pro plugin versionIn the WordPress admin dashboard, navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins and locate Dokan Pro. Note the version number displayed. Compare this version against the affected range: versions up to and including 5.0.4 are vulnerable.Affected if The installed version is 5.0.4 or lower
-
Confirm latitude/longitude feature is accessibleDetermine if the site uses Dokan Pro location features such as store geolocation, delivery zones, or product location mapping. These features accept latitude and longitude parameters and are typically accessible without authentication.Affected if Location-based features that accept latitude/longitude parameters are enabled and publicly accessible
-
Review plugin file for vulnerable code patternInspect the Dokan Pro plugin files, specifically looking for SQL query handling related to latitude and longitude parameters. The vulnerability exists where these parameters are used in unprepared SQL queries without proper escaping.Affected if The plugin code contains direct use of latitude/longitude parameters in SQL queries without prepared statements
The environment is affected if Dokan Pro version 5.0.4 or lower is installed and the latitude/longitude feature accepting user input is active.
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 Dokan Pro plugin to a version beyond 5.0.4 when available, or apply vendor-provided security patches. Until patched, consider disabling the affected functionality or implementing a WAF rule to block malicious latitude/longitude parameter values.
Dokan Pro 5.0.5 or later
