Wordpress Poll plugin description

Wordpress Poll is completely ajax powered polling system which supports both 
single and multiple selection of answers.  It has interesting functions like 
statistics, user logs and the opportunity to lock the users by their ip,cookies 
or id.

##########################
SQL injection location

The problem is located in the file: CWPPoll.js, to be more specific 
viewPollResults and userlogs methods.

Although both ajax functions are used in the administration side they can be 
accessed by an external script and their parameter(pollid) is not sanitised

##########################
POC

/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php/?poll_id=2 or 1=1&action=view_poll_result

via post/ajax


############################
BONUS TRACK

In the same plugin I found several functions that could have catastrophic 
results if they are handled by an attacker.

    function editAnswer(answerid, poll_id)
    function deleteAnswer(answerid, poll_id)
    function addAnswer(polls_id)
    function deletePoll()

All of them can be acceded from an external call allowing the attacker to 
add,edit, delete an answer and in the worst case delete a poll. The caller is 
not verified.

CVE identifier

CVE-2013-1400 number has been assigned to all of the SQL injection issues 
CVE-2013-1401 for those functions which can be handled externally
