Description

The User Activity Log plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via several parameters like 'userrole', 'userip', 'username', and 'type' in versions up to, and including, 1.6.2 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query in the ual_user_activity_function() function. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
