CVE-2023-50849Network attack vector

Administrator-level database disclosure via unprepared SQL query

Published Dec 28, 2023 · Updated Apr 28, 2026

SQL injection in E2Pdf – Export Pdf Tool for WordPress 1.20.23 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read database data. The publisher attributes the flaw to insufficient escaping of an unspecified user-supplied parameter and failure to prepare an existing SQL query; the affected handler is undisclosed. Administrator privileges are required, and the documented consequence is database-information disclosure rather than unauthenticated site compromise.
