Summary

The Animated Number Counters WordPress plugin before version 3.1 does not sanitise or escape a value stored by an Editor-level user before concatenating it into a SQL query that runs when any unauthenticated visitor renders a page containing the counter, leading to second-order SQL injection that can read arbitrary data including password hashes.

Risk Assessment

An unauthenticated attacker can exploit the vulnerability to read sensitive data from the database, including password hashes, potentially leading to confidentiality breach and account takeover.

Recommendation

Update the Animated Number Counters plugin to version 3.1 or later and implement proper input sanitization.
