Today, Talos is publishing a glimpse into the most prevalent threats we've observed between Oct. 13 and Oct. 20. As with previous roundups, this post isn't meant to be an in-depth analysis. Instead, this post will summarize the threats we've observed by highlighting key

The Horizontal scrolling announcement plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the plugin's [horizontal-scrolling] shortcode in versions up to, and including, 9.2 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 subscriber-level and above permissions to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

The Paid Memberships Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 2.4.2. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the pmpro_page_save() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to save pages via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

The Customizr theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 4.3.0. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the czr_fn_post_fields_save() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to post fields via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

The Cyr to Lat plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authenticated SQL Injection via the 'ctl_sanitize_title' function in versions up to, and including, 3.5 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This potentially allows authenticated users with the ability to add or modify terms or tags to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. A partial patch became available in version 3.6 and the issue was fully patched in version 3.7.

The Slimstat Analytics plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the plugin's shortcode in versions up to, and including, 5.0.9 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 contributor-level and above permissions to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

The Auto Amazon Links plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the style parameter in versions up to, and including, 5.3.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with contributor access to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

The AI ChatBot for WordPress is vulnerable to Directory Traversal in version 4.9.2 via the qcld_openai_upload_pagetraining_file function. This allows subscriber-level attackers to append "<?php" to any existing file on the server resulting in potential DoS when appended to critical files such as wp-config.php. This vulnerability is the same as CVE-2023-5241, but was reintroduced in version 4.9.2.

The mobile application or the affected API suffers from an SQL Injection vulnerability. Input passed to the parameters that are associated to international transfer is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user or used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code and disclose sensitive information.

In the module "Carousels Pack - Instagram, Products, Brands, Supplier" (hicarouselspack) for PrestaShop up to version 1.5.0 from HiPresta for PrestaShop, a guest can perform SQL injection via HiCpProductGetter::getViewedProduct().`
