WordPress · Wp Job Portal · CVE-2024-11713
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
WP Job Portal plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.2.2
**Description**
The issue is related to SQL Injection via the `page id` parameter of the `wpjobportal deactivate()` function due to insufficient escaping on the user-supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This allows authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
**Recommendations**
For versions up to, and including, 2.2.2, update to the latest version to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the `wpjobportal deactivate()` function until a patch is available.
Avoid using the `page id` parameter in the affected function until the issue is resolved.
