Input validation vulnerability in User Control 2.1.0

  • Severity: critical
  • Status: Open
  • Publication: January 28, 2018

The User Control plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to a security issue known as SQL Injection. This vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 2.1.0. The vulnerability is caused by the user-supplied ‘users’ parameter not being escaped properly, as well as the existing SQL query not being properly prepared. As a result, unauthenticated attackers can add their own SQL queries to the existing ones, which can be used to access sensitive information stored in the database.
