Technical details
A time-based SQL injection vulnerability exists in the Newsletters plugin for WordPress due to improper neutralization of the 'wpmlsubscriber_id' parameter. The root cause is a failure to use sufficient escaping and SQL query preparation (wpdb::prepare) when handling user-supplied input. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this over the network by appending malicious SQL commands to existing queries. By measuring the time delay in the server's response, the attacker can systematically extract sensitive data from the WordPress database. The vulnerability is present in all versions up to and including 4.13.
Affected products
