Network-reachable wp-admin endpoint (AV:N/AC:L) but requires administrator privileges (PR:H); SQLi exposes the database (C:H) with at least limited write potential (I:L); I treat scope as unchanged since impact stays within the WordPress DB trust boundary.

Administrator SQL Injection in Popup box <= 6.0.1 versions.
AnalysisAI
SQL injection in the AYS Popup Box WordPress plugin (versions 6.0.1 and earlier) lets an authenticated administrator inject arbitrary SQL into the WordPress database through an unsanitized plugin parameter (CWE-89). Because exploitation requires existing high-privilege administrator access per the CVSS PR:H metric, this is primarily a data-exposure/privilege-abuse issue rather than a remote-takeover flaw, and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an authenticated WordPress administrator session (CVSS PR:H), so the attacker must already possess admin credentials or have hijacked an admin session/account - this is the primary limiting factor. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Signals are mostly low-to-moderate and broadly consistent. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | A user who already holds - or has compromised via phishing of a legitimate admin - a WordPress administrator account submits a crafted value to a vulnerable Popup Box admin parameter, causing injected SQL to execute against the WordPress database and exfiltrate sensitive data such as password hashes or secrets stored by other plugins. No public proof-of-concept was identified at time of analysis, and the low attack complexity (AC:L) means that once admin access is obtained, triggering the injection is straightforward. |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch version is identified in the available data; the advisory only specifies the affected range '<= 6.0.1', which implies a fixed release exists but the exact patched version is not confirmed from the input. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: Audit active installations of AYS Popup Box and disable or uninstall the plugin if not critical to business operations. …
