SQL injection via unvalidated ticket-report sorting
Published Sep 30, 2026 · Updated Sep 30, 2026
SQL injection in Nexcess Event Tickets 5.29.5 and earlier allows remote authenticated users with Contributor access to manipulate database queries. The ticket-report ordering path insufficiently validates sort parameters before they are used to order database results. Contributor-level WordPress access is required; public sources do not identify the injected parameter or establish which database records can be exposed.
