AI Analysis

Impact

WordPress sites that use the Nks Email Subscription Popup plugin up to version 1.2.23 suffer from a blind SQL injection flaw. The vulnerability stems from improper neutralization of SQL input, allowing attackers to embed malicious SQL commands. This exploit can read or alter data stored in the WordPress database, potentially compromising the confidentiality and integrity of site content.

Affected Systems

This vulnerability affects WordPress installations that have the Nks Email Subscription Popup plugin at version 1.2.23 or earlier. The plugin includes an email‑subscription component that accepts user input. Based on the description, it is inferred that the subscription interface is publicly reachable, permitting unauthenticated users to submit data that is processed by the plugin.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.6 marks this flaw as high severity, while the EPSS score of 31% indicates a moderate likelihood of exploitation in the wild. It is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. The likely attack vector, inferred from the description, involves sending specially crafted input through the subscription form or related API endpoint to exploit the blind SQL injection and extract or modify database records.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Email Subscription Popup plugin to version 1.2.24 or later to eliminate the injection flaw
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, disable the plugin or remove its subscription endpoint to block further exploitation
  • Deploy a web application firewall rule that rejects SQL injection patterns on the plugin’s input fields
  • Continuously monitor database logs for abnormal query activity to detect attempts to exploit the vulnerability
