| Exploitation Conditions | The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) indicates no special conditions - remote unauthenticated exploitation over the network against installations of the Tablesome Table plugin, with no user interaction required. The concrete prerequisite is simply that a target WordPress site has the Tablesome/Tablesome Table plugin installed and active at version 1.2.9 or earlier, with the vulnerable request handler reachable over HTTP(S). The main limiting factor is that exploitation is blind (inference-based), so extracting large volumes of data is slower and noisier than in-band SQLi, and the specific vulnerable parameter/endpoint must be reachable; per the provided data impact is confidentiality-focused (C:H) with no confirmed integrity impact (I:N). |
| Impact | The signals are strong on paper but incomplete. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) indicates trivial remote, unauthenticated, low-complexity exploitation with no user interaction, and the 9.3 score is driven up by S:C (scope change) plus C:H, with only limited availability impact (A:L) and no integrity impact (I:N) - an unusual profile for SQLi, where write/integrity impact is often expected but here appears read-oriented (blind data exfiltration). No EPSS score, KEV entry, or POC was provided, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified from the input; the only source is a single Patchstack advisory. The lack of KEV/POC data suggests this is not yet known to be actively exploited, but blind SQLi in a network-reachable WordPress plugin is highly automatable and historically becomes a mass-scanning target once details or a fix diff are public, so it should be treated as a real, near-term priority rather than a theoretical high-CVSS issue. Note the I:N/A:L rating conflicts with the typical assumption that SQLi permits data modification - verify with the vendor whether write access is genuinely constrained. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An unauthenticated attacker identifies a WordPress site running Tablesome Table ≤1.2.9 and sends crafted HTTP requests to a vulnerable plugin parameter, embedding boolean- or time-based SQL payloads. By measuring differences in response content or latency, the attacker iteratively extracts sensitive database contents such as administrator password hashes or secret keys. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, but the low attack complexity makes automated mass exploitation straightforward. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Aug 12, 2026
Blind SQL injection in the Essekia "Tablesome Table" WordPress plugin (versions up to and including 1.2.9) lets remote attackers inject malicious SQL into database queries, enabling inference-based extraction of database contents. The CVSS 3.1 score of 9.3 reflects unauthenticated network exploitability with a scope change (S:C), meaning the impact reaches the underlying WordPress database beyond the plugin itself. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch version was identified in the provided data; the primary action is to monitor the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/tablesome/vulnerability/wordpress-tablesome-plugin-1-2-9-sql-injection-vulnerability) and the WordPress plugin repository for a release newer than 1.2.9, then upgrade immediately once available. Until a patch is confirmed, consider deactivating and removing the Tablesome plugin, which fully eliminates exposure at the cost of losing table functionality on the site. As compensating controls, deploy a WordPress-aware WAF (such as Patchstack's or Wordfence's virtual patching) to block SQL injection patterns against the plugin's endpoints, restrict access to the affected pages/AJAX handlers where feasible, and enable database query monitoring to detect blind-injection probing (repeated time-based or boolean payloads). WAF rules can produce false positives on legitimate table queries, so tune and test them before enforcing block mode.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Tablesome Table is a WordPress plugin (CPE cpe:2.3:a:essekia:tablesome_table) used to build and display data tables, often integrating with contact forms and post/table data. The root cause is CWE-89, Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command: user-supplied input is concatenated into a SQL query without proper parameterization or escaping, allowing an attacker to alter the query structure. Because the flaw is "blind," the application does not return query results directly; the attacker infers data by observing boolean or time-based differences in responses. WordPress plugins typically execute such queries through the shared $wpdb interface, so injection here can touch core WordPress tables (users, options, etc.), consistent with the scope-change (S:C) rating.

DescriptionCVE.org
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in Essekia Tablesome Table allows Blind SQL Injection.
This issue affects Tablesome Table: from n/a through 1.2.9.
Executive ViewAI
Organizations using the Essekia Tablesome Table WordPress plugin versions 1.2.9 or earlier face an immediate data breach risk from a critical SQL injection vulnerability (CVSS 9.3) that allows unauthenticated attackers to extract sensitive database contents. No vendor patch currently exists, making this an urgent remediation priority. Immediate action is required to mitigate exposure on all affected WordPress installations.
Immediately deactivate the Tablesome Table plugin across all affected WordPress installations. Deploy web application firewall (WAF) rules configured to block SQL injection payloads and blind SQL inference attempts. Restrict database user privileges to minimum necessary permissions and isolate the database from direct public network access. Implement database activity monitoring (DAM) to log and alert on suspicious query patterns. Review and enforce all application parameterization to prevent SQL injection at the application layer where possible. Conduct regular database integrity checks and maintain current backups to enable rapid restoration if compromise is detected.
