Critical Security Problems
-
Hi there,
The last days/weeks I keep getting emails from Wordfence about some critical security problems with Tablepress. It tells me to deactivate and remove the plugin. The problem is going on from february 2020 on..
Can this be fixed?
Description
“The TablePress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to CSV Injection in versions up to and including 1.14 via the tablepress[data] value. This makes it possible for attackers with author level access and above to embed untrusted input into exported CSV files, which can result in code execution when these files are downloaded and opened on a local system with a vulnerable configuration. This vulnerability is not likely to be exploited in the wild due to its high complexity and many modern day protections, however, it could have a significant impact if exploited successfully at it’s worst impact. Please note that while the CVE record says this issue was patched in 1.10, our team confirmed it is still exploitable in 1.14. The developer is working on a fix to be released in version 2.0 of TablePress.“Thanks in advanced.
Regards, Ruben
