Descriptions

The wpForo plugin through 2018-02-05 for WordPress has SQL Injection via a search with the /forum/ wpfo parameter.

Se ha descubierto un problema en Moodle 3.x. Los estudiantes que enviaban tareas y las exportaban a portfolios podían descargar cualquier archivo Moodle cambiando la URL de descarga.

The wpForo Forum plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Blind SQL Injection via the ‘wpfo’ parameter in versions up to, and including, 1.4.12 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.
