## What is CVE-2024-7607?

CVE-2024-7607 is a high-severity SQL injection vulnerability in rustaurius Front End Users, published on 29 Aug 2024. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

The Front End Users plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via the ‘order’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.28 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 Contributor-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
