CVE-2022-4373Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Database extraction via unescaped sortby parameter

Published Jan 2, 2023 · Updated Apr 10, 2025

SQL injection in Quote-O-Matic 1.0.5 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to extract database contents through an admin page. The plugin uses the admin page's unescaped sortby parameter in a SQL statement, allowing injected clauses to alter the database query. Administrator-level access is required; the demonstrated time-delay payload provides a query oracle that can disclose stored data.
