Technical description

The Ninja Tables – Easy Data Table Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized database table creation due to missing authorization checks on the `createFluentCartTable` function in all versions up to, and including, 5.2.6. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to create arbitrary Ninja Tables in the database which can lead to database pollution and resource exhaustion.
