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

SQL injection vulnerability in the WordPress Ninja Tables plugin allows attackers to inject malicious SQL queries through unsanitized user input in database operations, potentially enabling data exfiltration or database compromise.

MitigationUpdate Ninja Tables plugin to the latest patched version once available. If no patch exists, audit all database queries in the plugin and implement parameterized queries/prepared statements.

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. Confirm Ninja Tables plugin is installed
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'Ninja Tables' in the list. Note whether it is activated or not.
    Affected if The plugin is installed and activated, making the vulnerability surface accessible.
  2. Identify installed Ninja Tables version
    Click on the plugin name in the Plugins list to view details, or check the plugin header in /wp-content/plugins/ninja-tables/ninja-tables.php for the 'Version' field.
    Affected if The installed version matches or falls within an affected version range (compare your version to the patched version once published).
  3. Check for unauthorized database anomalies
    Review WordPress debug logs (wp-content/debug.log if logging is enabled) and server logs for unusual or malformed SQL queries originating from the ninja-tables plugin. Use SHOW PROCESSLIST in MySQL to check for suspicious active queries.
    Affected if Unexpected or malicious SQL syntax appears in logs with origins linked to the plugin.
  4. Inspect plugin database interactions
    If you have database access, query the wp_options table for any recent entries that may have been injected: SELECT * FROM wp_options WHERE option_name LIKE '%ninja%' AND (option_value LIKE '%SELECT%' OR option_value LIKE '%UNION%').
    Affected if Database contains suspicious SQL fragments in plugin-related records.

You are affected if the Ninja Tables plugin is active in your WordPress installation and the installed version is within the vulnerable range or unpatched.
