CVE-2026-12360 · Severity: high · CVSS 7.5 · Published 2026-06-17

The JetEngine plugin for WordPress, which is used to build dynamic content and listings, contains a security flaw that allows unauthorized individuals to access sensitive database information. By sending a specially crafted request to the website's 'Load More' feature, an attacker can bypass security checks and extract data without needing a login. This could lead to the exposure of private customer information or internal site data, potentially damaging the organization's reputation and data privacy compliance.

## Technical details

The JetEngine plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthenticated SQL injection via the 'listing_load_more' AJAX handler. The root cause is a failure to sanitize 'meta_query' row values within the 'filtered_query' parameter before they are merged into SQL statements. While the plugin uses HMAC signatures to protect most query parameters, 'filtered_query' is explicitly excluded from this check to facilitate front-end filtering. An attacker can intercept a legitimate AJAX request from a public Listing Grid page and append malicious SQL syntax to the 'meta_query' array. This enables blind SQL injection (time-based or boolean), allowing for the exfiltration of sensitive data from the WordPress database. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 3.8.10.1.
