WordPress vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Overview

The Thumbnail carousel slider plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'id' parameter in versions up to and including 1.0.4. The vulnerability exists due to insufficient escaping of user-supplied parameters and inadequate SQL query preparation (NVD). This security flaw was discovered and disclosed on March 15, 2025, affecting the WordPress plugin developed by Nks (WordPress Plugin).

Technical details

The vulnerability is classified as a SQL Injection (CWE-89) with a CVSS v3.1 Base Score of 4.9 (MEDIUM). The attack vector is network-accessible (AV:N), requires low attack complexity (AC:L), needs high privileges (PR:H), requires no user interaction (UI:N), with unchanged scope (S:U), potentially high confidentiality impact (C:H), but no impact on integrity (I:N) or availability (A:N) (NVD).

Impact

If successfully exploited, this vulnerability allows authenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries to existing queries, potentially extracting sensitive information from the database. The high confidentiality impact rating indicates that attackers could potentially access significant amounts of sensitive data (NVD).

Mitigation and workarounds

Users should upgrade to version 1.0.5 or later of the Thumbnail carousel slider plugin, which contains fixes for this vulnerability. The update includes proper parameter escaping and improved SQL query preparation (WordPress Plugin).
