Frequently Asked Questions

1

Which sites are exposed to unauthenticated exploitation?

Sites running the Social Web Suite WordPress plugin version 4.1.12 or earlier are affected if the plugin's shared secret has not been set. An attacker does not need to authenticate because requests can be accepted as authorised when that secret is unset.

2

What capability does successful exploitation provide?

An unauthenticated attacker can perform blind SQL injection through a parameter that is used in an SQL statement without sanitisation and escaping. The available information does not state which database data can be accessed or modified.

3

How can I determine whether my site is affected?

Check whether the Social Web Suite WordPress plugin is installed at version 4.1.12 or earlier, and review its configuration to determine whether its shared secret is unset. Both conditions are relevant to the described unauthenticated attack path.
