Descriptions

The Joy Of Text Lite WordPress plugin before 2.3.1 does not properly sanitise and escape some parameters before using them in SQL statements accessible to unauthenticated users, leading to unauthenticated SQL injection

El complemento Joy Of Text Lite de WordPress anterior a 2.3.1 no sanitiza ni escapa adecuadamente algunos parámetros antes de usarlos en sentencias SQL accesibles para usuarios no autenticados, lo que lleva a una inyección de SQL no autenticado.

The Joy Of Text Lite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via several parameters in versions up to, and including, 2.3.0 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
