La vulnerabilidad de neutralización incorrecta de elementos especiales utilizados en un comando SQL ('Inyección SQL') en Post SMTP permite la inyección SQL ciega. Este problema afecta a Post SMTP: desde n/a hasta 2.9.9.

The Post SMTP plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection in versions up to, and including, 2.9.9 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.
