The WP Directory Kit WordPress plugin before 1.6.3 does not properly sanitise and escape a parameter used to order results on one of its admin screens before using it in a SQL statement, relying on a keyword deny-list whose replacement order can be bypassed, making it possible for users holding the WP Directory Kit WordPress plugin before 1.6.3's custom Listing Admin role, and above, to perform SQL injection attacks.
