## Technical details

A SQL injection vulnerability exists in the WP ERP plugin for WordPress due to insufficient escaping and lack of preparation on the 'orderby' parameter within SQL queries. This flaw is present in all versions up to and including 1.17.5. The vulnerability is exploitable by authenticated attackers with the 'erp_list_employee' capability, typically assigned to HR Manager-level users and above.
