Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Web Directory Free WordPress plugin versions prior to 1.7.0

Description The issue concerns a SQL injection vulnerability. It occurs because a parameter is not properly sanitised and escaped before being used in a SQL statement via an AJAX action. This action is available to unauthenticated users, making it accessible without login credentials. The SQL injection can be performed using different techniques, including UNION, Time-Based, and Error-Based methods.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.7.0, update to version 1.7.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the AJAX action until the update can be applied.
