info:
  name: Photo Gallery by 10Web < 1.6.0 - SQL Injection
  author: ritikchaddha,princechaddha
  severity: critical
  description: |
    The Photo Gallery by 10Web WordPress plugin before 1.6.0 does not validate and escape the bwg_tag_id_bwg_thumbnails_0 parameter before using it in a SQL statement via the bwg_frontend_data AJAX action (available to unauthenticated and authenticated users), leading to an unauthenticated SQL injection
  impact: |
    Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries, potentially leading to unauthorized access, data manipulation, or data leakage.
  remediation: This is resolved in release 1.6.0.
