Buddyboss Platform <= 1.7.8 - SQL Injection

7.2
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')
CVSS 7.2 (High)
Publicly Published September 16, 2021
Last Updated January 22, 2024

Description

The Buddyboss Platform plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the BP_Notifications_Notification::get_order_by_sql() and BP_Invitation::get_order_by_sql() functions in versions up to, and including, 1.7.8 due to insufficient escaping on the user-supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for subscriber-level attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
