## Technical details

A SQL injection vulnerability exists in the KiviCare WordPress plugin due to insufficient escaping and lack of preparation on the 'orderby' parameter within the KCQueryBuilder.php and DoctorSessionController.php components. The flaw is accessible via a REST API endpoint restricted to users with at least Doctor, Receptionist, or Clinic Admin roles. An attacker can exploit this by appending malicious SQL queries to existing database calls to exfiltrate sensitive data.
