What is CVE-2024-8484?
A vulnerability exists in the REST API TO MiniProgram plugin for WordPress, affecting versions up to and including 4.7.1. This vulnerability is attributed to insufficient escaping of user-supplied input in the 'order' parameter of the /wp-json/watch-life-net/v1/comment/getcomments REST API endpoint. As a consequence, unauthenticated attackers can inject additional SQL queries into the existing database queries, potentially leading to unauthorized access and extraction of sensitive data from the database.
