Technical details
The plugin fails to properly sanitize the pagination offset parameter before incorporating it into a SQL query. The vulnerability is exploitable via the wpl_cookie_scanner AJAX action when a valid administrator nonce is obtained. An authenticated attacker with administrator privileges can inject arbitrary SQL commands through the offset parameter using time-based blind SQL injection techniques to extract data bit-by-bit from the WordPress database. The fix was released in version 4.4.2.
