Summary

The WP eCommerce plugin for WordPress exhibits a serious vulnerability that allows for execution of time-based blind SQL Injection attacks through the 'cart_contents' parameter. This flaw arises from inadequate escaping of user-supplied input, alongside a lack of necessary preparation for the existing SQL queries. As a result, this vulnerability empowers unauthenticated attackers to introduce arbitrary SQL queries into the existing ones, potentially leading to the unauthorized extraction of sensitive information stored in the database.
