What is CVE-2024-8669?

The Backuply plugin for WordPress, specifically versions up to and including 1.3.4, contains a vulnerability that allows authenticated users with administrator-level access to perform SQL Injection attacks. This vulnerability arises from inadequate escaping of the 'options' parameter in the backuply_wp_clone_sql() function, permitting attackers to append additional SQL queries to existing ones. As a result, attackers can exploit this weakness to extract sensitive data from the database, potentially compromising the security of the entire WordPress installation.
