This rule targets the SQL injection vulnerability in the WordPress Easy Digital Downloads plugin (CVE-2024-5057). The attack is performed via a GET request to /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php with the action parameter set to edd_download_search and the s parameter containing SQL metacharacters (notably ')).

  • The first rule block matches requests to the vulnerable endpoint by checking if the URI contains /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php (with lowercase and urldecode transforms for normalization).
  • The second block ensures the action parameter is exactly edd_download_search, which is required to trigger the vulnerable code path.
  • The third block inspects the s parameter for the presence of a single quote and parenthesis (')), a common SQL injection pattern, again using lowercase and urldecode for normalization and to avoid case sensitivity issues.

All value: fields are lowercase, and the transform section includes lowercase and urldecode as required. The rule uses contains and equals for matching, avoiding regex unless necessary, and targets only the relevant parameters to minimize false positives. The test config and nuclei test template are adapted to expect a 403 response, as per the guidelines.
