Title: Wordpress WP-Trackback.PHP SQL Injection Vulnerability

Severity: HIGH

Description:

Wordpress allows users to generate news pages and Web logs dynamically implementing PHP and a MySQL database.

Wordpress is prone to an SQL injection vulnerability. This issue is due to a failure in the application to properly sanitize user-supplied input to the 'tb_id' parameter of 'wp-trackback.php' before using it in an SQL query.

This vulnerability could permit remote attackers to pass malicious input to database queries, resulting in modification of query logic or other attacks.

Successful exploitation could result in a compromise of the application, disclosure or modification of data, or may permit an attacker to exploit vulnerabilities in the underlying database implementation.

Affected Products:

  • WordPress WordPress 1.5.0
