WordPress Website FAQ Plugin v1.0 SQL Injection
When submitting a query via the widget, intercept the post request via burp or other proxy to find the following: action=displayAnswer&category=1&searchtxt=[your query] Changing category=1 to category=1 or 1=1 -- exposes the vulnerability, as it returns all FAQ results regardless of searchtxt value.
Mitigation:
Input validation and sanitization should be used to prevent SQL injection attacks.
