## Summary

The WP Directory Kit plugin for WordPress is affected by this vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker could inject database commands through a parameter, potentially allowing them to extract sensitive information stored in the website's database.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- wpdirectorykit WP Directory Kit: through 1.6.0

## Description

The WP Directory Kit plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'idfield' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.0 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
