Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

The vulnerability is an SQL Injection flaw that allows attackers to inject SQL commands into the plugin’s queries, resulting in a blind SQL injection attack. This weakness can lead to unauthorized retrieval or modification of database contents, thereby compromising the confidentiality and integrity of data stored by the WordPress site.

Affected Systems

The flaw exists in the gopiplus Vertical scroll slideshow gallery v2 plugin, affecting all releases from the initial version through 9.1. Characters such as the plugin name and version range are explicitly listed as impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.8 signals a high severity level, while the EPSS score of less than 1% indicates that known exploitation attempts are currently rare. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV, which suggests it has not yet been documented as actively exploited in the field. Exploitation is possible from a web request targeting the plugin’s endpoints, and the attack does not require privileged user access—making it a plausible threat for remote attackers.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the gopiplus Vertical scroll slideshow gallery v2 plugin to a version newer than 9.1.
  • If an update is not yet available, disable or remove the plugin entirely from the site to eliminate the attack surface.
  • Deploy a Web Application Firewall with SQL injection protection rules to block malicious requests targeting the plugin’s endpoints.
  • Restrict the database user privileges to read‑only where feasible, limiting potential damage from exploitation.
  • Monitor web and database logs for signs of SQL injection attempts and respond promptly to anomalies.
