CVE-2025-10660: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in nicholasbosch WP Dashboard Chat
The WP Dashboard Chat plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the ‘id’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.3 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query.
