HTTP: WordPress Media Library Categories Plugin termid Parameter SQL Injection


This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in the WordPress Media Library Categories Plugin. It is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit this issue by manipulating the SQL query logic to carry out unauthorized actions on the underlying database.

Extended Description

The Media Library Categories plug-in for WordPress is prone to an SQL-injection vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data before using it in an SQL query. Exploiting this issue could allow an attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database. Media Library Categories versions 1.0.6 and prior are vulnerable.

Affected Products

  • Wordpress media_library_categories 1.0.4
  • Wordpress media_library_categories 1.0.5
  • Wordpress media_library_categories 1.0.6
