What is CVE-2026-84221?
The Kirki WordPress plugin prior to version 6.3.0 is susceptible to an SQL injection vulnerability. This flaw occurs because the plugin does not properly sanitize user-supplied identifiers used in SQL queries. As a result, users with editor-level permissions and higher can manipulate queries to include arbitrary SQL code. This manipulation potentially allows unauthorized access to sensitive data within the database, including user credentials and other confidential information.
Affected Version(s)
Kirki 6.0.0 < 6.3.0
Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)
PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
