What the vulnerability does
01Description
The Attendance Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'attmgr_off' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 0.6.2. This is due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

02Summary

An authenticated user with low privileges can inject malicious SQL commands to read or modify database records. The vulnerability requires valid login credentials but no additional user interaction. Update to a version newer than 0.6.2 to remediate.
