Summary

Bricks Theme from 0 before 2.4.4 is affected. The query_result REST endpoint takes a user-supplied urlParams value and re-parses it as a Bricks dynamic data tag, which is an improper neutralization of template engine syntax (CWE-1336). An unauthenticated remote attacker can use this to read post meta and the post author's user record, including the password hash.

Description from the CNA

Bricks Theme 2.4.3 and before contains an unauthenticated dynamic-data tag injection vulnerability that allows anonymous attackers to control the urlParams object in the query_result REST endpoint, causing the submitted value to be re-parsed as a Bricks dynamic data tag. Attackers can inject tags such as author_meta:user_pass, author_meta:user_email, or cf_coupon_amount to leak post meta and the post author's user record, including the password hash, without authentication.
