CVE-2023-0579

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions YARPP WordPress plugin versions prior to 5.30.3

Description The issue is related to the YARPP WordPress plugin, which does not validate and escape some of its shortcode attributes before using them in SQL statements. This could allow any authenticated users, such as subscribers, to perform SQL Injection attacks.

Recommendations For versions prior to 5.30.3, update to version 5.30.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the plugin's shortcode attributes to minimize the risk of exploitation.
