## Description

The Recipe Card Blocks Lite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'recipe_id' attribute of the [wpzoom_rcb_rating] shortcode and the 'recipeId' attribute of the Recipe Rating block in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.3, due to the recipe ID being concatenated directly into the WHERE clause of the rating queries without sanitization or a prepared statement. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
