CVE-2026-12110: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in taskbuilder Taskbuilder – Project Management & Task Management Tool With Kanban Board
The Taskbuilder – Project Management & Task Management Tool With Kanban Board plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'task_search' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.8 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. The wppm_get_task_list AJAX handler performs no capability check and no nonce verification, meaning any authenticated user including those with Subscriber-level access can invoke it directly.

Technical Summary
CVE-2026-12110 describes an SQL Injection vulnerability in the Taskbuilder – Project Management & Task Management Tool With Kanban Board WordPress plugin. The issue arises from improper neutralization of special elements in the 'task_search' parameter, which is used in SQL queries without sufficient escaping or preparation. The AJAX handler 'wppm_get_task_list' does not perform capability checks or nonce verification, enabling any authenticated user, including those with subscriber-level privileges, to exploit the vulnerability by injecting additional SQL commands. This can lead to unauthorized extraction of sensitive information from the database.
Potential Impact
An attacker with subscriber-level or higher authenticated access can exploit this vulnerability to perform SQL Injection attacks, potentially extracting sensitive data from the database. The vulnerability does not impact integrity or availability but compromises confidentiality. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict user roles and permissions to limit subscriber-level access where possible. Monitor for updates from the vendor regarding patches or official fixes.
