Vulnerability Overview

SQL injection vulnerability in social-slider-2/ajax.php in the Social Slider plugin before 7.4.2 for WordPress allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the rA array parameter.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 7.4.2, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')) 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.
