Unauthenticated database disclosure via unprepared SQL queries
Published May 20, 2026 · Updated May 20, 2026
Time-based SQL injection in PixelYourSite Boost 2.0.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to read sensitive WordPress database data. The plugin places the current_url and user_name parameters into existing SQL queries without sufficient escaping or preparation, enabling time-based blind query injection. The network-reachable attack requires no account or user interaction, and the documented consequence is limited to reading sensitive database information.
