Descriptions

The Import all XML, CSV & TXT WordPress plugin before 6.5.8 does not properly sanitise and escape imported data before using them back SQL statements, leading to SQL injection exploitable by high privilege users such as admin

El plugin Import all XML, CSV &amp; TXT de WordPress versiones anteriores a 6.5.8, no sanea y escapa apropiadamente de los datos importados antes de usarlos en las sentencias SQL, conllevando a una inyección SQL que puede ser explotada por usuarios con altos privilegios, como el administrador

The WP Ultimate CSV Importer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection in versions up to, and including, 6.5.7 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 administrator-level access, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
