Unauthenticated SQL injection via icpushcallback parameters

Published May 15, 2025 · Updated May 20, 2025

SQL injection in Push Notification for Post and BuddyPress before 1.9.4 allows remote attackers to execute SQL through unauthenticated AJAX. The public icpushcallback action inserts the onesignal_externalid or onesignal_get_subscriptionoptions_id value into an SQL statement without sanitizing or escaping it. No account or user interaction is required, and crafted requests can read, modify, or delete data available to the WordPress database account.
