WordPress Contus HD FLV Player plugin <= 1.3 SQL Injection Vulnerability

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient filtration of user-supplied input in the 'playid' parameter in the '/wp-content/plugins/contus-hd-flv-player/process-sortable.php' script. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the vulnerable script and execute arbitrary SQL commands in the application's database, caused by the use of the 'mysql_query()' function with unsanitized input. This can be exploited to disclose sensitive information, modify data, compromise the system, etc.

Mitigation:

Update to version 1.4 or later.
