Input validation vulnerability in WordPress Shout Box Widget 2.0.2

  • Severity: critical
  • Status: Open
  • Publication: January 31, 2013

The WordPress Shout Box Widget plugin, up to and including version 2.0.2, is vulnerable to a type of attack called ‘generic SQL Injection’. This means that an unauthenticated person can access sensitive data from the plugin’s database without permission. This is possible because the plugin does not properly escape user-supplied parameters and does not properly prepare the SQL query.
