The Import all XML, CSV & TXT WordPress plugin before 6.5.8 does not properly sanitise and escape imported data before using them back SQL statements, leading to SQL injection exploitable by high privilege users such as admin
The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
