Summary

The Persistent Login plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via 'wppl_device_id' Cookie in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.0 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. This vulnerability is only exploitable when the plugin's Login History feature is enabled.

Risk Assessment

An attacker with low-level privileges can extract sensitive data from the database, potentially leading to data confidentiality breaches.

Recommendation

Update the Persistent Login plugin to the latest version that includes a fix, or disable the Login History feature if not necessary.
