Album Cover Finder exposes unauthenticated SQL injection

Album Cover Finder through 0.7.0 inserts an unauthenticated caller-controlled parameter into a SQL query without sufficient sanitization or escaping. An attacker can alter the query and extract sensitive database data. The authoritative export does not identify the endpoint, parameter, query, or selected tables.

Component: Album Cover Finder
Plugin slug: album-cover-finder
Affected: <= 0.7.0
Safe version: See mitigation notes
Published: Sep 12, 2026
Weakness: CWE-89 — Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')

This CVE was published Sep 12, 2026 and is one of 1 known issue for this plugin.

What to do

Update, patch or deactivate.

No fixed release is confirmed in the authoritative export. Deactivate the plugin pending remediation. The application-level fix must use a prepared query with a fixed SQL structure, validate the parameter against its expected type, and avoid treating escaping as a substitute for parameterization.

No confirmed safe version is listed. Consider a vendor-supported patch or temporarily restricting the affected functionality while you assess the risk.

Deactivate only when warranted by your risk profile, or when advised by your hosting provider in the limited circumstances where the vulnerability cannot otherwise be mitigated. If you’re unsure which action is appropriate, contact Fused or your hosting provider for guidance.
