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 Fonts Manager | Custom Fonts plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via the ‘fmcfIdSelectedFnt’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.2 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 Fonts Manager | Custom Fonts WordPress plugin (versions up to 1.2) contains a time-based SQL injection vulnerability in the 'fmcfIdSelectedFnt' parameter. An unauthenticated attacker can inject malicious SQL queries due to insufficient input sanitization and lack of prepared statements in the database query, allowing extraction of sensitive data from the database.

MitigationUpdate to the latest version of the plugin (beyond 1.2) which should contain proper input sanitization and prepared SQL statements. As a temporary measure, consider deploying a WAF rule to block requests with suspicious SQL patterns in the fmcfIdSelectedFnt 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. Verify the plugin is installed
    Check the WordPress plugins directory (wp-content/plugins/) for a folder named 'fonts-manager-custom-fonts' or similar. Also check via WordPress admin dashboard under Plugins > Installed Plugins.
    Affected if The plugin folder exists in wp-content/plugins/ and appears in the WordPress plugins list.
  2. Determine the installed plugin version
    Open the plugin's main PHP file (usually named 'fonts-manager-custom-fonts.php') or the 'readme.txt' file in the plugin directory and look for the 'Version' header comment.
    Affected if The reported version is 1.2 or any version number lower than 1.2 (e.g., 1.0, 1.1).
  3. Confirm the plugin is active
    Check the WordPress database 'wp_options' table for the option 'active_plugins', or view the plugin status in the WordPress admin Plugins page.
    Affected if The plugin shows as 'Active' in WordPress rather than 'Inactive' or 'Network Active'.
  4. Identify the vulnerable endpoint
    Search the plugin PHP files for the string 'fmcfIdSelectedFnt' to locate the file and function handling this parameter. This parameter is likely received via GET or POST request.
    Affected if The parameter 'fmcfIdSelectedFnt' is found in a plugin PHP file and is used directly in a database query without prepare() statements.
  5. Inspect the vulnerable query code
    Examine the code around the fmcfIdSelectedFnt parameter usage. Look for wpdb->prepare() or $wpdb->prepare() calls. If absent and the parameter is concatenated directly into SQL, the vulnerability is present.
    Affected if The code does not use prepared statements ($wpdb->prepare) and the parameter is inserted directly into the SQL query without sanitization functions like sanitize_text_field().

You are affected if the Fonts Manager plugin is installed, active, and running version 1.2 or lower, with the fmcfIdSelectedFnt parameter being used in unsanitized SQL queries.

Mitigation

Update to the latest version of the plugin (beyond 1.2) which should contain proper input sanitization and prepared SQL statements. As a temporary measure, consider deploying a WAF rule to block requests with suspicious SQL patterns in the fmcfIdSelectedFnt parameter.
