Am I affected?

SMTP Mail smtp-mail

  1. Affected≤ 1.2.1
  2. Patched in1.2.2

Update to 1.2.2 or newer.

What to do

  2. Rotate administrator passwords and application secrets if the site ran a vulnerable version while publicly reachable.
  3. Watch SMTP Mail to get an email when the next vulnerability is published.

Advisory

Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to WPScanTeam.

The SMTP Mail plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the ‘order’ and ‘orderby’ parameters in versions up to, and including, 1.2.1 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
