Description

The ERP WordPress plugin before 1.12.4 does not properly sanitise and escape the `type` parameter in the `erp/v1/accounting/v1/people` REST API endpoint before using it in a SQL statement, leading to a SQL injection exploitable by high privilege users such as admin.

• CWE-89Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
