Descriptions

Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in Xenioushk BWL Advanced FAQ Manager.This issue affects BWL Advanced FAQ Manager: from n/a through 2.0.3.

Neutralización inadecuada de elementos especiales utilizados en una vulnerabilidad de comando SQL ('inyección SQL') en Xenioushk BWL Advanced FAQ Manager. Este problema afecta a BWL Advanced FAQ Manager: desde n/a hasta 2.0.3.

The BWL Advanced FAQ Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection in versions up to, and including, 2.0.3 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 administrator-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

BWL Advanced FAQ Manager version 2.0.3 suffers from a remote SQL injection vulnerability.
