Short explanation
WP Data Access plugin up to version 5.5.89 is vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting via the Image URL column value. The vulnerability arises due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.
This vulnerability allows low-privileged subscribers to inject malicious scripts into administrator-configured pages, threatening user session security.
What should be done?
- Follow vendor advisories to apply updates.
- Audit shortcode configurations and column media types.
- Restrict suspicious user permissions and roles.

Show the technical text from the sources
The WP Data Access – App Builder for Tables, Forms, Dashboards, Charts & Maps plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'ImageURL column value (populated from wp_usermeta.description in the demonstrated path)' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 5.5.89 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Exploitation requires an administrator to have published a DataTables shortcode over a database column the attacker controls (e.g., wp_usermeta.description) with the Image URL media type assigned to that column — both are supported plugin features but are not enabled by default.
