Vulnerability Overview

The CampTix Event Ticketing plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to CSV Injection in versions up to, and including, 1.4.2. This allows attackers to embed untrusted input into exported CSV files, which can result in code execution when these files are downloaded and opened on a local system with a vulnerable configuration.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 1.5, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-77 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command ('Command Injection')) The product constructs all or part of a command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended command when it is sent to a downstream component.
