What the vulnerability does
The Vibes plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via the ‘resource’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.0 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.
Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms
Vibes versions 2.2.0 and earlier contain a SQL injection vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read sensitive data from the database without user interaction. The vulnerability exists in how the application constructs database queries. An attacker can craft malicious input to extract information such as user credentials or other confidential records.
What an attacker can do
Read sensitive data from the site's database, including user credentials and other confidential information.
Potential impact on your site
Attackers can extract user passwords, email addresses, and other sensitive data stored in your database without your knowledge.
