Welcart CSV import permits Editor-level SQL injection
Welcart e-Commerce before 2.11.32 uses an attacker-controlled value from an imported CSV file in a SQL statement without adequate sanitization or query preparation. An Editor or a user holding one of Welcart's delegated shop-management roles can therefore execute SQL under the WordPress database account.
