Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
A SQL Injection vulnerability in the Advanced Popup Creator (advancedpopupcreator) module for PrestaShop 1.1.26 through 1.2.6 (Fixed in version 1.2.7) allows remote unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary SQL queries via the fromController parameter in the popup controller. The parameter is passed unsanitized to SQL queries in classes/AdvancedPopup.php (getPopups() and updateVisits() functions).

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

A critical SQL injection vulnerability in the Advanced Popup Creator PrestaShop module (versions 1.1.26-1.2.6) allows remote unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the unsanitized fromController parameter passed to the getPopups() and updateVisits() functions in classes/AdvancedPopup.php.

MitigationUpgrade the module to version 1.2.7 or later. As an interim measure, deploy WAF rules or request filtering to block SQL injection payloads in the fromController parameter until the patch can be applied.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Locate the Advanced Popup Creator module
    Check if the module directory exists in your PrestaShop installation under modules/ (common paths: modules/advancedpopupcreator, modules/advanced_popup_creator, or similar)
    Affected if The module directory exists and contains the Advanced Popup Creator files
  2. Identify the module version
    Open the module's main PHP file or config.xml and look for a version declaration (often in a $this->version variable or <version> tag)
    Affected if The installed version falls within 1.1.26 through 1.2.6 (inclusive)
  3. Verify the vulnerable file exists
    Confirm the presence of classes/AdvancedPopup.php within the module directory
    Affected if The file exists and contains the getPopups() and updateVisits() functions
  4. Check if the module is enabled
    In the PrestaShop admin panel, navigate to Modules > Module Manager and verify the Advanced Popup Creator status, or query the ps_module database table for the module's active status
    Affected if The module is installed and enabled (active)
  5. Confirm the fromController parameter handling
    Inspect the getPopups() and updateVisits() functions in classes/AdvancedPopup.php for direct use of the fromController request parameter in SQL queries without sanitization
    Affected if The code directly passes $_POST['fromController'] or similar unsanitized input into SQL queries

You are affected if the Advanced Popup Creator module is installed with a version between 1.1.26 and 1.2.6, the vulnerable file exists, and the module is enabled with unsanitized fromController parameter usage in the codebase.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Upgrade the module to version 1.2.7 or later. As an interim measure, deploy WAF rules or request filtering to block SQL injection payloads in the fromController parameter until the patch can be applied.

Recommended fix High confidence

1.2.7

  1. 1. Identify the Advanced Popup Creator module installation directory in your PrestaShop modules folder
  2. 2. Download the latest version 1.2.7 or later of the Advanced Popup Creator module from the official source (addons.prestashop.com)
  3. 3. Backup your current module installation and database before proceeding
  4. 4. Upload and install the updated module version 1.2.7
  5. 5. Clear the PrestaShop cache (var/cache/ or via admin panel)
  6. 6. Verify the fix by confirming the fromController parameter is now properly sanitized in classes/AdvancedPopup.php (getPopups and updateVisits functions)
Caveat Module updates may have minor template or feature changes; test in staging environment before production deployment
