WordPress plugin: Comment Rating SQL injection
A SQL injection vulnerability exists in the Wordpress plugin Comment Rating, due to the lack of input validation in the HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR header. An attacker can inject malicious SQL code in the header, which can be used to execute arbitrary SQL commands on the underlying database.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be performed on all user-supplied data, and special characters should be escaped before being used in SQL queries.
