Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Popup Like box – Page Plugin WordPress plugin versions prior to 3.5.3
Description
The issue arises from the
get fb likeboxes() function not validating the orderby parameter before using it in SQL statements, leading to SQL injection issues in the admin dashboard. This allows for potential manipulation of database queries.Recommendations
For versions prior to 3.5.3, update to version 3.5.3 or later to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
get fb likeboxes() function until a patch is available.
Avoid using the orderby parameter in the affected SQL statements until the issue is resolved.Exploitability
