CVE-2020-36852 (GCVE-0-2020-36852)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-10-01 06:42 – Updated: 2026-04-08 16:42

Title

Custom Searchable Data Entry System <= 1.7.1 - Unauthenticated Database Wiping

Summary

The Custom Searchable Data Entry System plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthenticated database wiping in versions up to, and including 1.7.1, due to a missing capability check and lack of sufficient validation on the ghazale_sds_delete_entries_table_row() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to completely wipe database tables such as wp_users.

Severity

9.1 (Critical)
