CVE-2019-14231
This allows an unauthenticated/unprivileged user to perform a SQL injection attack capable of remote code execution and information disclosure.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.62%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
An issue was discovered in the Viral Quiz Maker - OnionBuzz plugin before 1.2.2 for WordPress. One could exploit the points parameter in the ob_get_results ajax nopriv handler due to there being no sanitization prior to use in a SQL query in getResultByPointsTrivia. This allows an unauthenticated/unprivileged user to perform a SQL injection attack capable of remote code execution and information disclosure.
