Neutralización inadecuada de elementos especiales utilizados en una vulnerabilidad de comando SQL ("Inyección SQL") en Contest Gallery. Este problema afecta a Contest Gallery: desde n/a hasta 21.3.4.

The Photos and Files Contest Gallery – Contact Form, Upload Form, Social Share and Voting Competition Plugin for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection in all versions up to, and including, 21.3.4 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 contributor-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
