Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')
CVE CVE-2024-7349
CVSS 7.2 (High)
Publicly Published September 5, 2024
Last Updated September 6, 2024
Researcher FKSEC

Description

The LifterLMS – WP LMS for eLearning, Online Courses, & Quizzes plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to blind SQL Injection via the 'order' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 7.7.5 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.
