What is CVE-2021-4340?

The uListing plugin for WordPress contains a vulnerability that allows unauthenticated users to exploit SQL injection flaws via the 'listing_id' parameter. Due to inadequate escaping of user-supplied input and poor preparation of SQL queries, attackers can inject malicious SQL statements, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive data stored in the database. This highlights the importance of implementing secure coding practices to mitigate risks associated with SQL injection attacks.
