Description
The Taskbuilder – WordPress Project Management & Task Management plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based blind SQL Injection via the 'order' and 'sort_by' parameters in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.2 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 subscriber-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

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?

The Taskbuilder WordPress plugin for project and task management is vulnerable to a time-based blind SQL Injection attack. This vulnerability exists in the 'order' and 'sort_by' parameters in all versions up to and including 5.0.2. The issue arises because these parameters are not properly escaped or prepared before being used in SQL queries. As a result, authenticated users with subscriber-level access or higher can inject additional SQL commands into existing queries, potentially extracting sensitive information from the database.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

This vulnerability allows attackers with at least subscriber-level access to perform SQL Injection attacks that can extract sensitive data from the database. Although it does not directly allow modification or deletion of data, the exposure of sensitive information can lead to privacy breaches, unauthorized data disclosure, and potential further exploitation of the system.
