Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Floating Chat Widget: Contact Chat Icons, Telegram Chat, Line, WeChat, Email, SMS, Call Button WordPress plugin versions prior to 3.0.3

Description The issue arises from the plugin's failure to properly sanitise and escape a parameter before using it in a SQL statement, leading to a SQL injection. This can be exploited by users with a role as low as admin.

Recommendations For versions prior to 3.0.3, update to version 3.0.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting admin access to trusted users until the update is applied.
