Request input is built into a $wpdb query string without $wpdb->prepare() placeholders (SQL injection).
Category: SECURITY · Engine rule severity: ERROR
How to fix it
Build the query with $wpdb->prepare() and %s / %d / %i placeholders, passing request values as arguments; never interpolate them into the format string.
