| Description | The Animated Number Counters WordPress plugin before 3.1 does not sanitise or escape a value stored by an Editor-level user before concatenating it into a SQL query that runs when any unauthenticated visitor renders a page containing the counter, leading to second-order SQL injection that can read arbitrary data including password hashes. |
