CVE-2025-11204
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedThe RegistrationMagic – Custom Registration Forms, User Registration, Payment, and User Login plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection in all versions up to, and including, 6.0.6.2 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator access or higher, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. An unauthenticated attacker could utilize an injected Cross-Site Scripting via user-agent on form submission to leverage this to achieve Reflected Cross-Site Scripting.
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 · high confidenceThe RegistrationMagic WordPress plugin versions up to 6.0.6.2 contain a SQL Injection vulnerability due to insufficient escaping on user-supplied parameters combined with a lack of prepared statements in the existing SQL queries. Authenticated attackers with administrator-level privileges can inject malicious SQL queries to extract sensitive database information. An unauthenticated attack vector also exists via reflected XSS through the user-agent header during form submission.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify RegistrationMagic plugin is installedCheck for the plugin directory at /wp-content/plugins/registrationmagic/ or search for 'registrationmagic.php' in the plugins folder. You can also list installed plugins via WP-CLI: wp plugin list --name=registrationmagicAffected if The plugin directory or files exist in the WordPress installation
-
Determine the installed versionOpen the main plugin file (typically registrationmagic.php) and locate the version comment/header, or check the readme.txt file in the plugin directory. The version is often defined in a comment block at the top of the main PHP fileAffected if The version number is 6.0.6.2 or lower (any version up to and including 6.0.6.2)
-
Confirm admin user accounts existIn WordPress admin, go to Users > All Users and check for any user with Administrator role, or query the wp_usermeta table for meta_value='administrator'Affected if At least one administrator-level user account exists in the WordPress installation (required for the SQL injection attack vector)
-
Check for publicly accessible formsVisit the site frontend and check if any RegistrationMagic forms are accessible without authentication. Forms are typically at URLs like /?regmagic_form=1 or /registration/, or check the form published status in the plugin admin panelAffected if RegistrationMagic forms are published and accessible to unauthenticated users (enables the reflected XSS via user-agent header)
You are affected if RegistrationMagic plugin version 6.0.6.2 or lower is installed AND (admin accounts exist for SQLi risk OR forms are publicly accessible for XSS risk).

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedUpdate the RegistrationMagic plugin to version 6.0.7 or later which contains the security patch. Until patched, restrict administrative access and implement WAF rules to block SQL injection patterns in requests.
Version 6.0.6.3 or latest available version
- Log in to the WordPress admin dashboard
- Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins
- Find 'RegistrationMagic – Custom Registration Forms, User Registration, Payment, and User Login'
- Click 'Update now' if an update is available, or manually upload the latest version from wordpress.org/plugins/registrationmagic
- After updating, verify the new version number is 6.0.6.3 or higher
