CriticalMetricsAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
The Joy Of Text Lite WordPress plugin versions prior to 2.3.1
Description
The issue arises from the plugin's failure to properly sanitise and escape certain parameters before using them in SQL statements, which are accessible to unauthenticated users. This leads to unauthenticated SQL injection.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 2.3.1, update to version 2.3.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the plugin's SQL statements to minimize the risk of exploitation.
