CVE-2021-24862 is a SQL injection vulnerability in the RegistrationMagic WordPress plugin (versions prior to 5.0.1.6). The vulnerability exists in the rm_chronos_ajax AJAX action, where user input is not properly escaped before being used in SQL statements during batch task duplication. This allows authenticated attackers to inject arbitrary SQL commands into the database.

This repository contains a single Metasploit auxiliary scanner module targeting an authenticated SQL injection vulnerability (CVE-2021-24862) in the RegistrationMagic WordPress plugin (versions prior to 5.0.1.5). The module requires valid WordPress credentials and exploits a time-based blind SQL injection via the 'task_ids[]' POST parameter to the '/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php' endpoint. Upon successful exploitation, it enumerates and extracts usernames and password hashes from the 'wp_users' table. The code is written in Ruby and leverages Metasploit's WordPress and SQLi mixins for authentication and exploitation. The module is operational and provides credential extraction functionality, but does not provide a customizable or post-exploitation payload.
