Technical details
The Quiz Master Next plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to a second-order SQL Injection due to insufficient input validation and output escaping. Specifically, the 'qsm_ajax_save_pages()' AJAX handler uses only 'sanitize_text_field()' on the 'pages' parameter, which is insufficient for preventing SQL injection when the data is later used in a query. The stored page IDs are subsequently interpolated into an IN() clause via 'implode()' in 'qsm_options_questions_tab_content()' without integer casting or the use of '$wpdb->prepare()'. Authenticated attackers with Author-level permissions can exploit this to plant a payload that executes when any user views the quiz's Questions tab, allowing for the extraction of sensitive database information.
