Unknown · Novel-Plus · CVE-2023-2040
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
novel-plus version 3.6.2
**Description**
A critical issue has been discovered, allowing for SQL injection through the manipulation of the `sort` argument in the "/news/list?limit=10&offset=0&order=desc" API endpoint. This can be exploited remotely.
**Recommendations**
For novel-plus version 3.6.2, as a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the "/news/list" API endpoint until a patch is available.
