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 · unedited
The Ally – Web Accessibility & Usability plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the URL path in all versions up to, and including, 4.0.3. This is due to insufficient escaping on the user-supplied URL parameter in the `get_global_remediations()` method, where it is directly concatenated into an SQL JOIN clause without proper sanitization for SQL context. While `esc_url_raw()` is applied for URL safety, it does not prevent SQL metacharacters (single quotes, parentheses) from being injected. 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 via time-based blind SQL injection techniques. The Remediation module must be active, which requires the plugin to be connected to an Elementor account.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The Ally WordPress plugin fails to properly sanitize the URL parameter in the get_global_remediations() method. While esc_url_raw() is applied (for URL validation), it does not escape SQL metacharacters like single quotes and parentheses. An unauthenticated attacker can inject arbitrary SQL queries via the URL parameter, leveraging time-based blind SQL injection to exfiltrate database contents. Exploitation requires the Remediation module to be active and the plugin connected to an Elementor account.

MitigationUpdate to plugin version 4.0.4 or later. If immediate update is not possible, disable the Remediation module or deActivate the plugin until patched. Restrict access to the Elementor account connection if possible.

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 Ally plugin is installed
    Check your WordPress plugins directory for the 'ally' or 'wp-cloud' plugin folder, or view it in the WordPress admin under Plugins
    Affected if The Ally plugin is not found in the installation
  2. Check installed Ally plugin version
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and find the Ally plugin version number, or inspect the plugin's main PHP file header for the Version field
    Affected if Version is unknown or cannot be determined from the plugin files
  3. Confirm version is vulnerable
    Compare your installed version against the patched version 4.0.4 - any version prior to 4.0.4 is potentially vulnerable
    Affected if Installed version is earlier than 4.0.4
  4. Check if Remediation module is active
    Navigate to Ally plugin settings in WordPress admin and look for the Remediation module status; this is typically found under the plugin's main configuration page
    Affected if Remediation module is enabled and active
  5. Check for Elementor account connection
    In Ally plugin settings, look for integrations or connections section to see if an Elementor account is connected; this may appear as an API connection or OAuth link
    Affected if The plugin shows an active connection to an Elementor account

A user is affected if the Ally plugin versions earlier than 4.0.4 is installed AND the Remediation module is enabled AND the plugin is connected to an Elementor account, creating the conditions for unauthenticated SQL injection.
