CVE-2024-35678Network attack vector

Authenticated database disclosure via unprepared SQL query

Published Jun 8, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026

SQL injection in BestWebSoft Contact Form to DB 1.7.2 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read database data via crafted input. The plugin inserts a user-controlled parameter into an existing SQL query without sufficient escaping or parameterized preparation; public advisories do not identify the parameter or function. A low-privilege WordPress account and network access are required, and the CNA assessment limits the established consequence to database disclosure and a service interruption.
