Authenticated database extraction via order_col SQL injection
Published Jan 21, 2026 · Updated Jan 21, 2026
Blind SQL injection in Seo Panel 4.8.0 allows remote authenticated users to extract database information through archive.php. archive.php incorporates the attacker-controlled order_col value into a database query, so a supplied SLEEP subquery changes server response time. Access to the SEO administration panel is required; the time-based oracle exposes database contents without directly returning query results.
