Description
The WP Data Access – App Builder for Tables, Forms, Dashboards, Charts & Maps plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 5.5.88 via the 'rel_tab' parameter. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to extract every row and column of the underlying database table backing any anonymously published app, including WordPress user password hashes, email addresses, and password-reset keys from wp_users. Exploitation requires that an administrator has published at least one app with its REST API authorization set to 'anonymous', which is the standard configuration for publicly embedded apps.

AI Analysis

Impact

The WP Data Access plugin version 5.5.88 and earlier contains a flaw that allows unauthenticated users to obtain the full contents of any database table that backs an anonymous public app. By supplying a specific table identifier via the 'rel_tab' request parameter, an attacker can retrieve every row and column, including WordPress user credentials such as password hashes, email addresses and password‑reset tokens. This vulnerability is a direct compromise of confidentiality and could enable credential theft, account takeover and further exploitation of the WordPress installation.

Affected Systems

The affected product is WP Data Access – App Builder for Tables, Forms, Dashboards, Charts & Maps. Versions up to and including 5.5.88 are vulnerable.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.9 indicates moderate severity. EPSS data is not available and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV. An attacker can exploit the weakness by targeting the plugin’s REST API endpoint after an administrator has published at least one app with the authorization set to ‘anonymous’, the standard configuration for publicly embedded apps. The attack requires no special credentials and can be performed over the public network, exposing sensitive database contents to any unauthenticated visitor.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the WP Data Access plugin to version 5.5.89 or later.
  • If the patch cannot be applied immediately, change the REST API authorization for all publicly embedded apps to require authentication.
  • Ensure no other apps are configured with anonymous API access, and review the plugin settings for any remaining default permissions.
