CVE intelligence and bounded remediation

CVE-2026-5074 — ARMember Premium security vulnerability

Medium CVSS 6.5

The ARMember Premium plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'sSortDir_0' parameter of the `get_private_content_data` AJAX action in all versions up to, and including, 7.3.1. This is due to insufficient sanitization of the user-supplied parameter which is concatenated directly into the ORDER BY clause of an SQL query without a whitelist check. 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. Note: The vulnerability can only be exploited if the "User Private Content" addon is enabled, which is disabled by default..

Matched remediation archetype

SQL and data-query injection

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Trace request, message, file, and stored values into SQL, ORM query fragments, filters, sort expressions, and other data-query languages.
  • Inventory database roles, reachable schemas, multi-tenant boundaries, and whether stacked or administrative operations are enabled.
  • Check both direct queries and second-order use of previously stored values.

Remediate safely

  • Use parameterized queries or safe query builders for all values; map identifiers and operators through explicit allowlists.
  • Remove raw query concatenation and give the application account only the tables and operations it requires.
  • Update affected data-access components and add regression tests for query structure preservation with inert edge-case inputs.
