Find Me On WordPress Plugin SQL Injection Vulnerability

A SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in the Find Me On WordPress plugin, affecting versions through 2.0.9.1. The issue arises because the plugin fails to properly sanitize and escape a parameter before incorporating it into a SQL statement. This flaw allows users with subscriber roles and above to execute SQL injection attacks.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for SQL injection, where an attacker can manipulate SQL queries to the database. This could lead to unauthorized data access, data manipulation, or in some cases, executing administrative operations on the database.

Reproduction

To reproduce this vulnerability, send a POST request to wp-admin/admin-ajax.php while including a subscriber cookie. The request must include the action parameter set to 'find_me_on_delete_network', the linkId parameter set to '1', and the cookie parameter with the appropriate cookie value.
