Details
A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in tomdever wpForo Forum Plugin up to 2.4.12 on WordPress. Affected by this issue is an unknown code block. The manipulation of the argument post_args/topic_args with an unknown input leads to a sql injection vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-89. The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:
The wpForo Forum plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the `post_args` and `topic_args` parameters in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.12 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
