Description
The OptinCraft – Drag & Drop Optins & Popup Builder for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'order_by' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.0 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability in OptinCraft arises from insufficient escaping of the 'order_by' parameter, allowing authenticated administrators to inject arbitrary SQL. This flaw permits the execution of additional queries within the same request, potentially disclosing sensitive database content. The weakness is a classic SQL injection flaw (CWE‑89).

Affected Systems

WordPress sites using the OptinCraft – Drag & Drop Optins & Popup Builder plugin version 1.2.0 or earlier, including the 1.0.2 tag referenced in the plugin's codebase.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 4.9 indicates a moderate risk level, and EPSS is not available, so there is no current evidence of widespread exploitation. The vulnerability requires legitimate administrator access, so attackers need to first gain or possess such credentials. Since the flaw can be triggered via the web interface, it is remote on the staging or production environment. The flaw is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, but mitigated by reducing attack surface from the administrator account.

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update OptinCraft to the latest version (1.2.1 or newer) where the 'order_by' parameter is properly sanitized.
  • Limit administrator-level access to only trusted users and regularly audit administrator accounts.
  • Implement a web application firewall rule to detect and block suspicious SQL injection payloads targeting the 'order_by' parameter.
