AI-suggested

If you cannot patch yet, users should consider disabling or restricting access to the vulnerable wpForo Forum 2.4.14 component or applying custom input validation and filtering on the wpfob parameter to mitigate exploitation risk.

Description

wpForo 2.4.14 contains an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability in Topics::get_topics() where the ORDER BY clause relies on ineffective esc_sql() sanitization on unquoted identifiers. Attackers exploit the wpfob parameter with CASE WHEN payloads to perform blind boolean extraction of credentials from the WordPress database.
