Forminator Forms SQL Injection Vulnerability for WordPress

A time-based SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in the Forminator Forms plugin for WordPress, specifically in versions through 1.45.0. The issue arises from inadequate escaping of user-supplied data in the 'order_by' parameter, allowing authenticated attackers with Administrator-level access to inject additional SQL queries. This exploitation could lead to the extraction of sensitive information from the database.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for time-based SQL injection, where an attacker can manipulate SQL queries to extract sensitive data from the database.

Remediation

Users are advised to update the Forminator Forms plugin to version 1.45.1 or a newer patched version.
