MapSVG <= 6.2.19 - SQL Injection
Strategic Overview
Vulnerability Overview
The MapSVG WordPress plugin before 6.2.20 does not validate and escape a parameter via a REST endpoint before using it in a SQL statement, leading to a SQL Injection exploitable by unauthenticated users.
Technical Analysis
REMEDIATION: Update to version 6.2.20, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')) The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
