Administrator-level database disclosure via unescaped SQL parameter
Published Jun 27, 2023 · Updated Nov 27, 2024
SQL injection in wpwox Responsive CSS Editor 1.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users with administrator access to read database data. The published records identify only an unspecified parameter inserted into an existing SQL query without adequate sanitization, escaping, or preparation; the affected handler and parameter name are undisclosed. Administrator-level access is required, and crafted input can append SQL statements that extract sensitive information from the WordPress database.
