Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Hide My WP WordPress plugin versions prior to 6.2.9

Description The issue arises from the plugin's failure to properly sanitize and escape a parameter before using it in a SQL statement via an AJAX action. This AJAX action is available to unauthenticated users, leading to a SQL injection.

Recommendations For versions prior to 6.2.9, update to version 6.2.9 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the AJAX action until the update is applied.
