Summary

A time-based blind SQL injection flaw exists in the Tag, Category, and Taxonomy Manager – AI Autotagger with OpenAI plugin for WordPress, in all versions up to and including 3.40.1. The flaw sits in the 'existing_terms_orderby' parameter of the AI preview AJAX endpoint, caused by insufficient escaping and missing query parameterization. An authenticated attacker with Contributor-level access or above, holding AI metabox permissions, can append SQL queries to existing ones to extract sensitive database information, degrade performance, or infer data via time-based techniques.
