Summary
The NEX-Forms plugin for WordPress, prior to version 8.4, contains a vulnerability that arises from the improper handling of the table parameter, which accepts user input. This weakness can lead to SQL injection, allowing attackers to manipulate SQL queries executed by the application. The lack of proper sanitization of the user input opens pathways for unauthorized data access and could compromise the integrity of the database.
