Descriptions

Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in Paytm Paytm Payment Gateway paytm-payments allows SQL Injection.This issue affects Paytm Payment Gateway: from n/a through 2.7.3.

Neutralización inadecuada de elementos especiales utilizados en una vulnerabilidad de comando SQL ("Inyección SQL") en Paytm Paytm Payment Gateway paytm-paids permite la inyección SQL. Este problema afecta a Paytm Payment Gateway: desde n/a hasta 2.7.3.

The Paytm Payment Gateway plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the ‘post’ parameter in versions up to, and including, 2.7.3 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 editor-level access, and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
