NVD · unedited
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in jerodmoore eDoc Easy Tables edoc-easy-tables allows Blind SQL Injection.This issue affects eDoc Easy Tables: from n/a through <= 1.29.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

A CSRF vulnerability in eDoc Easy Tables version 1.29 and earlier allows authenticated attackers to forge requests that execute blind SQL injection attacks against the application's database, potentially enabling unauthorized data extraction through true/false conditional queries.

MitigationImplement anti-CSRF tokens on all state-changing forms and requests; add server-side input validation and parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection; update to a patched version when available.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify eDoc Easy Tables plugin is installed
    Access the WordPress admin dashboard and navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins. Look for 'eDoc Easy Tables' in the list of active or installed plugins.
    Affected if The plugin is not installed or has been removed from the WordPress installation.
  2. Check the installed plugin version
    In the Plugins page, find the eDoc Easy Tables entry. The version number is displayed below the plugin name. Compare this version to the affected range.
    Affected if The installed version is 1.29 or lower.
  3. Identify state-changing forms or actions
    Inspect the plugin files (typically in wp-content/plugins/edoc-easy-tables) for form handlers that modify data, such as save, update, delete, or import operations. Look for PHP files containing $_POST or $_GET requests that interact with the database.
    Affected if The plugin contains forms or URL parameters that perform database operations without visible output (blind SQL injection scenarios).
  4. Check for CSRF token validation in forms
    Examine the plugin PHP code for form submissions. Look for presence of wp_nonce_field(), wp_verify_nonce(), or similar token generation and validation functions in the form handling code.
    Affected if State-changing forms lack CSRF token generation on the form output or lack token validation in the form handler.
  5. Check database queries for prepared statements
    Review the plugin PHP files that execute SQL queries. Look for direct query construction with string concatenation or interpolation of user input into SQL strings, versus usage of $wpdb->prepare(), $wpdb->insert(), $wpdb->update(), or similar parameterized query methods.
    Affected if Database operations use string concatenation or interpolation for user-supplied input rather than parameterized queries.

A user is affected if the eDoc Easy Tables plugin is installed with version 1.29 or lower and contains forms or database operations lacking CSRF token validation and parameterized SQL queries.
