AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability allows an authenticated administrator to inject arbitrary SQL statements into the plugin's backend. An attacker who exploits this flaw can read, modify, or delete database records, potentially compromising confidential data, altering site content, or escalating privileges. The weakness is a classic injection flaw (CWE-89).

Affected Systems

WordPress sites using the Melapress Admin Notices Manager plugin 1.6.0 or earlier are affected. No specific operating system or WordPress version is limited; the vulnerability resides in the plugin code itself.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.6 indicates a high risk. The EPSS score is not available, so the likelihood of exploitation cannot be quantified. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers would need administrative access to the WordPress backend to execute the injected queries, making the attack vector an authenticated web interface.

Remediation

Vendor Solution

Update the WordPress Admin Notices Manager Plugin to the latest available version (at least 1.6.1).


OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the WordPress Admin Notices Manager plugin to the latest available version, at least 1.6.1.
  • If an update cannot be applied immediately, limit access to the plugin’s administrative pages to trusted staff and monitor database activity for abnormal queries.
  • Review the plugin’s code or use a web application firewall to ensure all SQL statements are properly parameterized and that user input is validated before inclusion in queries.
