Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Front End Users plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.2.28
Description
The issue is a time-based SQL Injection vulnerability via the
order parameter. This vulnerability is due to insufficient escaping on the user-supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. It allows authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries, which can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.Recommendations
For versions up to, and including, 3.2.28, update to a version higher than 3.2.28 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
order parameter in the affected API endpoint until a patch is available.Fix
