Deeper analysis
The REST API TO MiniProgram plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL injection in all versions through 4.7.1. The flaw exists in the /wp-json/watch-life-net/v1/comment/getcomments REST endpoint, where the order parameter is insufficiently escaped and the corresponding SQL query is not properly prepared before execution.
Unauthenticated attackers can supply crafted input to the order parameter and append arbitrary SQL clauses to existing queries. Successful exploitation allows extraction of sensitive information from the WordPress database without requiring authentication or user interaction.
References point to the vulnerable code in the plugin repository and a subsequent changeset, indicating that a fix has been committed, though no specific remediation steps or updated version numbers are detailed in the provided data. The EPSS score has reached 0.8907 without an observable rise from a lower baseline.
