ProjectDiscoveryCRITICALLogDash Activity Log <= 1.1.3 - SQL InjectionCVSS 9.8

The LogDash Activity Log plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the username parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.3 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

Impact

Unauthenticated attackers can exploit SQL injection to execute arbitrary SQL commands, potentially compromising the database.

Remediation

Upgrade to version 1.1.4 or later.
