Source record
Technical description
The SupportCandy WordPress plugin before 3.1.7 does not properly sanitise and escape the agents[] parameter in the set_add_agent_leaves AJAX function before using it in a SQL statement, leading to a SQL injection exploitable by high privilege users such as admin.
