- CVE-2023-1016, 9 Jun 2023
- The Intuitive Custom Post Order plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection in versions up to, and including, 3.1.4.1, due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied 'objects' and 'tags' parameters and lack of sufficient preparation in the 'update_options' function as well as the 'refresh' function which runs queries on the same values. This allows authenticated attackers, with administrator permissions, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. Note that this attack may only be practical on configurations where it is possible to bypass addslashes due to the database using a nonstandard character set such as GBK. CVE record

- CVE-2022-4386, 21 Feb 2023
- The Intuitive Custom Post Order WordPress plugin before 3.1.4 lacks CSRF protection in its update-menu-order ajax action, allowing an attacker to trick any user to change the menu order via a CSRF attack CVE record
What to do if you run Intuitive Custom Post Order
If you run Intuitive Custom Post Order, open WordPress and check the installed version in Plugins. Compare it with the affected versions in the vulnerability record. If a fixed version is available, take a current backup and update to that version or the latest supported release.

After dealing with the affected software, check administrator users, unexpected file changes, redirects, unfamiliar pages and security logs for signs that the site may already have been altered.
