Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, was found in xylus WP Bulk Delete Plugin up to 1.4.2. This affects some unknown processing. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a sql injection vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-89. The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

The WP Bulk Delete plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'delete_user_roles' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.2 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. wp_unslash() is applied to the raw POST body before parse_str() decomposes it, stripping WordPress magic-quotes protection and leaving attacker-controlled values fully unescaped prior to reaching the SQL sink.

The advisory is shared at wordfence.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2026-15727 since 07/14/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. Additional levels of successful authentication are required for exploitation. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available.
