Title
Burst Statistics Really Simple Plugins <= 1.5.3 - Authenticated (Editor+) SQL Injection
Summary
The Burst Statistics – Privacy-Friendly Analytics for WordPress plugin, version 1.5.3, is vulnerable to Post-Authenticated SQL Injection via multiple JSON parameters in the /wp-json/burst/v1/data/compare endpoint. Affected parameters include 'browser', 'device', 'page_id', 'page_url', 'platform', and 'referrer'. This vulnerability arises due to insufficient escaping of user-supplied parameters and the lack of adequate preparation in SQL queries. As a result, authenticated attackers with editor access or higher can append additional SQL queries into existing ones, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive information from the database.

Los par\u00e1metros afectados incluyen \"browser\", \"device\", \"page_id\", \"page_url\", \"platform\" y \"referrer\". Esta vulnerabilidad surge debido a un escape insuficiente de los par\u00e1metros proporcionados por el usuario y a la falta de preparaci\u00f3n adecuada en las consultas SQL. Como resultado, los atacantes autenticados con acceso de editor o superior pueden agregar consultas SQL adicionales a las existentes, lo que podr\u00eda conducir a un acceso no autorizado a informaci\u00f3n confidencial de la base de datos."

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
