Description

The Pre* Party Resource Hints plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via an unknown parameter in all versions before 1.8.19 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. Note that the vulnerability appears to have been patched without a version update - users on version 1.8.19 should reinstall the plugin to ensure that they are running the patched version.
