Description
The Contest Gallery plugin for WordPress allows unauthenticated attackers to perform SQL Injection, a technique where malicious SQL statements are inserted into entry fields for execution. This occurs due to insufficient escaping of user-supplied parameters and a lack of proper preparation of the SQL query, enabling the extraction of sensitive information from the database.
Recommendations
Update the plugin to a version later than 28.1.6.
Fix
SQL injection
