Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 14 Nov 2026
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponized: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 13 Nov 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

Upgrade the WP Ultimate CSV Importer plugin to version 9.3 or later, where this issue is fixed. Since the vulnerability affects versions before 9.3, applying this official fix will mitigate the risk. No other mitigation guidance is provided.

Description

The WP Ultimate CSV Importer WordPress plugin versions before 9.3 contain a vulnerability where values from imported files are not escaped before use in SQL queries when importing LifterLMS content. This flaw allows high privilege users, such as administrators on single or multisite WordPress installations, to perform SQL injection attacks.

Impact

High privilege users, including administrators on single or multisite WordPress networks, can exploit this vulnerability to perform SQL injection attacks. This could lead to unauthorized database manipulation, data leakage, or other impacts typical of SQL injection vulnerabilities. There is no indication of exploitation in the wild at this time.

Summary

The WP Ultimate CSV Importer plugin for WordPress, prior to version 9.3, fails to properly escape values from imported CSV files before incorporating them into SQL queries during the import of LifterLMS content. This improper input handling enables users with high privileges, including site administrators, to execute SQL injection attacks, potentially compromising the database integrity or confidentiality.
