Exploitability
| CWE ID | Description |
|---|---|
| CWE-89 | 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. |

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
This vulnerability is an SQL Injection in the External Login plugin for WordPress affecting versions up to 1.11.2. It occurs because the 'log' parameter is not properly escaped or prepared in SQL queries, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject additional SQL commands. This can lead to extraction of sensitive information from the database when PostgreSQL or MSSQL is used as the external authentication database.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
An attacker exploiting this vulnerability can extract sensitive information from the database without authentication. This could lead to data breaches, exposure of user credentials or other confidential data, potentially compromising the security of your WordPress site and its users.
