Discussion
WordPress Automatic 'q' Parameter SQL Injection Vulnerability
Automatic is prone to an SQL-injection vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data before using it in an SQL query.
A successful exploit may allow an attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database.
Automatic 2.0.3 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
