Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Multiple Page Generator Plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.3.17

Description The issue allows for time-based SQL Injection via the orderby and order parameters due to insufficient escaping on the user-supplied parameter 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, which can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 3.3.17, update to a version that addresses the SQL Injection issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the orderby and order parameters to minimize the risk of exploitation.
