CVE-2026-2412
The Quiz and Survey Master (QSM) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'merged_question' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 10.3.5. This is due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied input before being used in a SQL query. The sanitize_text_field() function applied to the merged_question parameter does not prevent SQL metacharacters like ), OR, AND, and # from being included in the value, which is then directly concatenated into a SQL IN() clause without
