AI-suggested

If you cannot patch yet, it is recommended to restrict access to the vulnerable endpoints, implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block SQL injection attempts targeting the referer_spam_ajouter and referer_spam_supprimer handlers, and monitor for suspicious activity. Applying input validation and parameterization in custom deployments can mitigate risk. Avoid exposing these endpoints publicly if possible.

Description

The SPIP referer_spam plugin versions prior to 1.3.0 contain an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability in the referer_spam_ajouter and referer_spam_supprimer action handlers. The handlers read the url parameter from a GET request and interpolate it directly into SQL LIKE clauses without input validation or parameterization. The endpoints do not enforce authorization checks and do not use SPIP action protections such as securiser_action(), allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL queries.
