The Contest Gallery WordPress plugin before 19.1.5.1, Contest Gallery Pro WordPress plugin before 19.1.5.1 do not escape the user_id POST parameter before concatenating it to an SQL query in ajax-functions-backend.php. This may allow malicious users with at least author privilege to leak sensitive information from the site’s database.
