WordPress IP-Logger plugin <= 3.0 SQL Injection Vulnerability

The WordPress IP-Logger plugin version 3.0 is vulnerable to SQL Injection. By injecting a specially crafted SQL query in the 'lat' parameter, an attacker can manipulate the SQL query and retrieve sensitive information from the database.

Mitigation:

Update to the latest version of the plugin to patch the vulnerability. Additionally, input validation and parameterized queries should be used to prevent SQL Injection attacks.
