CVE-2017-6574 describes a high-severity SQL injection vulnerability affecting version 1.0 of the Mail Masta plugin for WordPress. This flaw, specifically in the ./inc/lists/edit_member.php file via the 'filter_list' GET parameter, allows an attacker with existing WordPress administrator access to execute arbitrary SQL commands. The vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 7.2, indicating a high potential for impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While no public exploits (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB) or active exploitation (KEV) have been identified, and community discussion is minimal, the presence of administrator access as a prerequisite somewhat mitigates its immediate threat.
