Description
The Contest Gallery WordPress plugin before 19.1.5.1, Contest Gallery Pro WordPress plugin before 19.1.5.1 do not escape the upload[] POST parameter before concatenating it to an SQL query in get-data-create-upload-v10.php. This may allow malicious users with at least author privilege to leak sensitive information from the site's database.
Public exploit
An exploit or proof of concept is public: anyone can try it against an unpatched system. A reference of the record is tagged as an exploit. CISA's SSVC rates its exploitation: a proof of concept is public.
