Product | Affected Versions

GoZen Forms WordPress Plugin | Up to and including 1.1.5

How the Exploit Works

The vulnerability lies in the ‘forms-id’ parameter of the dirGZActiveForm() function. Due to insufficient escaping on this user-supplied parameter and inadequate preparation of the SQL query, an attacker can append additional SQL queries into already existing ones. These modified queries can then be used to extract sensitive information from the database linked to the WordPress site.

Conceptual Example Code

This is a conceptual example demonstrating the potential exploitation of the vulnerability.

POST /wp-content/plugins/gozen-forms/dirGZActiveForm.php HTTP/1.1
Host: targetsite.com
forms-id=1';SELECT * FROM wp_users;--

In this example, the malicious payload is `1′;SELECT * FROM wp_users;–`, which would inject an additional SQL command after the original query that extracts all user information from the `wp_users` table.

Recommended Mitigation

To mitigate this vulnerability, apply the vendor patch as soon as it’s available. In the meantime, employing a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can serve as a temporary solution.
