What is CVE-2026-8444?
CVE-2026-8444 is a high-severity SQL injection vulnerability in https://wpreviewslider.com/ WP Review Slider Pro, published on 16 Jun 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.
Official description
The WP Review Slider Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'curselrevs[]' parameter of the wpfb_find_reviews AJAX action in versions up to, and including, 12.6.8. This is due to the handler reading $_POST['curselrevs'] raw with no sanitization or type casting, then concatenating each array element directly into a `WHERE id IN ( ... )` clause without quoting and executing via $wpdb->get_results() without $wpdb->prepare(). 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.
Weakness: CWE-89
