The manipulation of the argument packages with an unknown input leads to a sql injection vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-89.

Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:
The DirectoryPress – Business Directory And Classified Ad Listing plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'packages' parameter in versions up to, and including, 3.6.26 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
