The TS Poll WordPress plugin before 2.4.0 does not sanitize and escape a parameter before using it in a SQL statement, allowing admins to perform SQL injection attacks
The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
