Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-28659 exists.\n\nAffected product: Waiting: One-click Countdowns WordPress Plugin. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28659/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28659/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-28659","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28659/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-28659","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5h4q-7v83-2cp6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can exploit SQL injection in the Waiting: One-click Countdowns WordPress plugin to read or modify database contents.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"sql_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"tenable","cpe":[{"product":"waiting","vendor":"plugin"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-89","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command"}],"description":"The Waiting: One-click Countdowns WordPress Plugin, version \u003c= 0.6.2, is affected by an authenticated SQL injection vulnerability in the pbc_down[meta][id] parameter of the pbc_save_downs action.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"SQL injection in Waiting: One-click Countdowns WordPress Plugin","id":"CVE-2023-28659","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"sql_injection","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"SQL injection in Events Made Easy WordPress Plugin","id":"CVE-2023-28660"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) oneMKL software","id":"CVE-2023-28658"},"products":["Waiting: One-click Countdowns WordPress Plugin"],"published":"2023-03-22","related":[{"cvss_score":7.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Waiting: One-click countdowns","id":"CVE-2023-2757","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-18"},{"cvss_score":6.3,"headline":"Waiting: One-click countdowns \u003c= 0.6.2 - Missing Authorization","id":"CVE-2023-3999","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-31"},{"cvss_score":6.3,"headline":"Waiting: One-click countdowns \u003c= 0.6.2 - Cross-Site Request Forgery","id":"CVE-2023-4000","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-31"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Waiting: One-click countdowns \u003c= 0.6.2 - Authenticated (Administrator+) Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2022-4954","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-20"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-25","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Authenticated attackers can exploit SQL injection in the Waiting: One-click Countdowns WordPress plugin to read or modify database contents.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28659/"}
