Original NVD Description

Wow Forms WordPress Plugin version 2.1 contains an SQL injection vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to read arbitrary database information by exploiting an unescaped POST parameter. Attackers can inject SQL code through the 'mwpformid' parameter in requests to the admin-ajax.php endpoint with the 'send_mwp_form' action to extract sensitive database contents.
