What is CVE-2026-118204?

The WP Data Access plugin is susceptible to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to insufficient input validation for the 'ImageURL column value' parameter. Attackers with subscriber-level access and higher can exploit this vulnerability by injecting malicious scripts into pages accessible to users. This occurs when an administrator enables features that allow for DataTables shortcodes linked to a user-controlled column, making it feasible for the attacker to execute unauthorized scripts upon user access. The vulnerability impacts all versions of the plugin up to and including 5.5.89.

Affected Version(s)

WP Data Access – App Builder for Tables, Forms, Dashboards, Charts & Maps 0 <= 5.5.89
