Descriptions
The WP User WordPress plugin through 7.0 does not properly sanitize and escape a parameter before using it in a SQL statement, leading to a SQL injection exploitable by unauthenticated users.
El complemento WP User de WordPress hasta la versión 7.0 no sanitiza ni escapa adecuadamente un parámetro antes de usarlo en una declaración SQL, lo que genera una inyección SQL explotable por usuarios no autenticados.
The WP User plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection in versions up to, and including, 7.0 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
