Until a fix is available, restrict access to the plugin and monitor for suspicious GET requests containing the 'sg_popup_preview_id' parameter. Consider disabling or removing the plugin if possible to prevent exploitation.

Description

Popup Builder WordPress plugin versions up to 4.4.5 suffer from an authorization bypass vulnerability. This flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to trash all published popups on a site via a single crafted GET request. The issue is worsened by a secondary flaw in the plugin's SGPopup::find() function, which causes all published popups to be targeted simultaneously when a specific parameter is present.
