WordPress · Network Summary Plugin For Wordpress · CVE-2024-2804
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Network Summary plugin for WordPress versions up to and including 2.0.11
**Description**
The issue allows for SQL Injection via the `category` parameter due to insufficient escaping on the user-supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This enables unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries, potentially extracting sensitive information from the database.
**Recommendations**
For versions up to and including 2.0.11, update to a version that includes a fix for this issue to prevent SQL Injection attacks. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the `category` parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation.
