Summary

The Infility Global plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL injection via the 'orderby' and 'order' parameters in versions up to and including 2.15.16. This is due to insufficient escaping and lack of proper SQL query preparation in the show_control_data::post_list() function. Authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access or higher can append additional SQL queries to extract sensitive database information.

Risk Assessment

The risk is that an authenticated attacker with low privileges could extract sensitive data from the WordPress database.

Recommendation

Immediately update the Infility Global plugin to a version above 2.15.16 and restrict admin panel access to untrusted users.

Original NVD description (English source)

The Infility Global plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'orderby' and 'order' parameters in all versions up to, and including, 2.15.16. This is due to insufficient escaping on user supplied parameters and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query within the show_control_data::post_list() function, which is registered as an admin menu page with only the 'read' capability. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
