Motors – Car Dealership & Classified Listings Plugin: SQL injection

The Motors – Car Dealership & Classified Listings Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based blind SQL Injection via the 'stm_lat/stm_lng' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.109 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.

No confirmed fixed release is identified. Disable the affected feature or deactivate the component until an upstream fix is confirmed. An application-level fix should parameterize database values and allowlist identifiers or sort fields that cannot be bound as values. The verified Motors release is 1.4.124; the reviewed changelog does not confirm a fix for stm_lat/stm_lng SQL injection.

No confirmed safe version is listed. Consider a vendor-supported patch or temporarily restricting the affected functionality while you assess the risk.

Deactivate only when warranted by your risk profile, or when advised by your hosting provider in the limited circumstances where the vulnerability cannot otherwise be mitigated. If you’re unsure which action is appropriate, contact Fused or your hosting provider for guidance.
