Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in webaways NEX-Forms Plugin up to 9.3.0. Affected by this vulnerability is the function get_table_records. The manipulation of the argument additional_params with an unknown input leads to a sql injection vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-89.

As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

The NEX-Forms – Ultimate Forms Plugin for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'additional_params' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 9.3.0 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with custom-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. The operator allowlist applied by get_table_records() when building its own WHERE fragment is not enforced on the same tainted additional_params array when it is forwarded to get_total_records(), leaving the SQL sink unprotected.
