| CWE ID | Description |
|---|---|
| CWE-89 | The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data. |

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
This vulnerability is an SQL Injection issue in the WordPress iFrame Images Gallery plugin (up to version 9.0). It allows a malicious user with at least Contributor-level privileges to manipulate SQL commands executed by the website, enabling them to interact directly with the website's database. This can lead to unauthorized data access or manipulation. The vulnerability is classified under OWASP Top 10 category A3: Injection and has a high severity CVSS score of 8.5. [1]
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can allow attackers to steal or manipulate data in your website's database. Since it requires only Contributor-level access, attackers can exploit it to gain unauthorized access to sensitive information or alter data, potentially compromising the integrity and confidentiality of your site. Because the plugin is abandoned and unpatched, the risk remains unless you remove the plugin or apply a virtual patch. Automated attacks may target vulnerable sites indiscriminately, increasing the risk of exploitation. [1]
How can this vulnerability be detected on my network or system? Can you suggest some commands?
Detection of this SQL Injection vulnerability involves monitoring for unusual database interactions or exploitation attempts by users with Contributor-level privileges. Since no specific detection commands are provided, it is recommended to perform professional incident response and server-side malware scanning rather than relying on plugin-based scanners. Network monitoring tools can be used to detect suspicious SQL queries or abnormal traffic patterns targeting the iFrame Images Gallery plugin endpoints. [1]
What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?
Immediate mitigation steps include removing and replacing the vulnerable iFrame Images Gallery plugin with a secure alternative, as no official fix or updated version is available. Applying a virtual patch (vPatch) from Patchstack can provide rapid protection without requiring an official patch. Deactivating the plugin alone does not eliminate the risk. For compromised sites, professional incident response and server-side malware scanning are strongly recommended. [1]
