## Technical details

An authenticated SQL injection vulnerability exists in CubeCart's admin orders-transactions listing page (admin.php?_g=orders&node=transactions). The application constructs a raw SQL 'ORDER BY' fragment using the $_GET['sort'] array without validating column names or sort directions. While the framework uses sqlSafe() (mysqli::real_escape_string), this only escapes quotes and other characters not required for injection within an ORDER BY clause. An attacker with at least CC_PERM_READ permissions can use time-based blind extraction to retrieve sensitive data from the database, such as PII and credentials. The issue is resolved in version 6.7.0.
