Database disclosure via unescaped query parameters
Published Nov 3, 2023 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
SQL injection in Spiffy Plugins Spiffy Calendar 4.9.1 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read database data via crafted parameters. The event management page passes user-controlled orderby and order parameters into database queries without sufficient escaping or preparation. Contributor-level access reaches the flaw by default; Subscriber access is sufficient when the Event manager role setting grants event-management permission.
