Description

The EazyDocs WordPress plugin before 2.3.4 does not properly sanitize and escape "data" parameter before using it in an SQL statement via an AJAX action, which could allow any authenticated users, such as subscribers, to perform SQL Injection attacks.

• CWE-89Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
