SQL Injection Vulnerability in Houzez Theme Plugin

CVE-2024-5793

What is CVE-2024-5793?

The Houzez Theme for WordPress is susceptible to an SQL Injection vulnerability through the 'currency_code' parameter. This issue arises from inadequate escaping of user-supplied input and insufficient preparation of SQL queries. Authenticated attackers with Custom-level (seller) permissions and higher can inject additional SQL queries into existing ones, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive database information. It's crucial for users and administrators to ensure they are using secure versions of the theme and to apply necessary patches immediately.
