Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Active Directory Integration plugin for WordPress versions up to and including 4.1.4

Description The issue allows for time-based SQL Injection due to insufficient escaping on the user-supplied orderby and order parameters and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This enables authenticated attackers with administrator privileges to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries, potentially extracting sensitive information from the database.

Recommendations For Active Directory Integration plugin for WordPress versions up to and including 4.1.4, update to a version higher than 4.1.4 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the orderby and order parameters to minimize the risk of exploitation.
