Improper neutralization of SQL parameters in Advanced Popup Creator module from Idnovate for PrestaShop

  • Disclosed: 13.02.2026
  • Updated: 11.10.2026 10:22

A SQL Injection vulnerability in the Advanced Popup Creator (advancedpopupcreator) module for PrestaShop, before version 1.2.7, allows remote unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary SQL queries via the fromController parameter in the popup controller.

Up to version 1.2.6, SQL queries in the FrontController endpoint popup.php of the Advanced Popup Creator (advancedpopupcreator) module can be exploited through trivial HTTP requests to perform SQL injection via the fromController parameter submitted through POST or GET.

This vulnerability was observed during incident response investigations and may have been actively exploited in the wild.

The vendor confirmed that the vulnerability has been present since at least version 1.1.26. The exact version in which it was introduced has not been determined. Therefore, we consider that all versions prior to 1.2.7 are vulnerable.

This vulnerability relies on PrestaShop’s FrontController, which allows attackers to hide the module controller’s path during the exploit. As a result, conventional frontend logs won’t reveal that this vulnerability is being exploited. Only POST / will be visible in logs. Activating the AuditEngine of mod_security (or similar) is the only way to get data to confirm this exploit.
