CVE-2026-4126Table Manager <= 1.0.0 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Sensitive Information Exposure via 'table' Shortcode Attribute
Medium 4.3
In plain English
A medium-severity information exposure in Table Manager from primisdigital. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.3% (higher than 24% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
The Table Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.0 via the 'table_manager' shortcode. The shortcode handler `tablemanager_render_table_shortcode()` takes a user-controlled `table` attribute, applies only `sanitize_key()` for sanitization, and concatenates the value with `$wpdb->prefix` to form a full database table name. It then executes `DESC` and `SELECT *` queries against this table and renders all rows and columns to the frontend. There is no allowlist check to ensure only plugin-created tables can be accessed — the `tablemanager_created_tables` option is only referenced in admin functions, never in the shortcode handler. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to extract sensitive data from arbitrary WordPress database tables.
