CVE-2015-5533

Status: ModifiedHigh (7.2)—

SQL injection vulnerability in counter-options.php in the Count Per Day plugin before 3.4.1 for WordPress allows remote authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the cpd_keep_month parameter to wp-admin/options-general.php. NOTE: this can be leveraged using CSRF to allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
