Technical details
A blind SQL injection vulnerability exists in the wpWax Directorist Booking plugin for WordPress due to improper neutralization of special elements in SQL commands.

Successful exploitation allows for the extraction of sensitive data from the database, though it does not directly allow for data modification. The issue has been addressed in version 3.0.4.
