Summary
Livewire PowerGrid, a data table package for Laravel Livewire, is affected by an SQL injection flaw in its sorting code. A remote attacker with a low-privilege account can send a crafted request to the Livewire update endpoint to run arbitrary SQL against the database.
Read the original description
Livewire PowerGrid creates data tables based on Laravel Livewire library. From version 6.0.0 to before version 6.10.4, the public Livewire property sortDirection is interpolated verbatim into a raw SQL ORDER BY clause and is not restricted to asc/desc, allowing arbitrary SQL injection through POST /livewire/update. This issue has been patched in version 6.10.4.
Who should check
Anyone running Power-Components livewire-powergrid from 6.0.0 before 6.10.4 with a table using naturalSort columns

Check your systems with an agent
Paste this into a coding or ops agent. It checks your systems read-only and reports a table per asset.
Check whether my systems are affected by CVE-2026-65971 (Livewire PowerGrid: SQL Injection through the public `sortDirection` Livewire property in the `naturalSort` order-by path), using the cve.now data below.
Rules: work read-only. Do not run exploit code, proof-of-concept scripts or scanners that send attack payloads, and do not change any configuration, package, image or deployment. Report findings only.
What cve.now has for CVE-2026-65971 (entry last updated 2026-11-11):
Affected:
- Power-Components livewire-powergrid: from 6.0.0, fixed in 6.10.4
Fixed versions: 6.10.4.
Conditions (all must be true for the bug to be hit):
- Livewire PowerGrid versions from 6.0.0 up to but not including 6.10.4 (source: https://github.com/Power-Components/livewire-powergrid/security/advisories/GHSA-7fgc-3h6c-698r)
- A PowerGrid table that uses a naturalSort column (source: https://github.com/Power-Components/livewire-powergrid/security/advisories/GHSA-7fgc-3h6c-698r)
Setup: unknown whether the bug needs a non-default feature or setting. Check the advisory.
Attacker needs: network access, low-privilege login, no user action.
CISA KEV: CVE-2026-65971 is not listed as of cve.now's last read.
This KEV status is for CVE-2026-65971 only. If you also check another CVE, look up its own KEV status; never assume it from this one.
How to check:
- Installed software: check what is actually running, not what a repo declares. Read the version from each host, container image and Kubernetes node (the binary's version output, the OS package database, image layers), and check whether the conditions above hold there. Distribution packages may carry a backported fix under an older version number; confirm against the distribution's own advisory.
Verify against the linked advisories before concluding, and cite the date you read each one:
- https://github.com/Power-Components/livewire-powergrid/security/advisories/GHSA-7fgc-3h6c-698r
- https://github.com/Power-Components/livewire-powergrid/commit/13d047bf1637e82926e6914aa3ca0f29a4c9704a
- https://github.com/Power-Components/livewire-powergrid/releases/tag/v6.10.4
Do not conclude an asset is unaffected unless you checked it and the evidence covers both its version and the conditions above. If you could not check something, mark it unknown and say what is missing.
Report a table with one row per asset and these columns: Asset | Version or build | Status (affected, fixed, not applicable, unknown) | Compensating controls | Exposure (internet-facing, internal, none) | Evidence | Next action.

Questions about CVE-2026-65971
Is CVE-2026-65971 being exploited?
It is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and CISA's SSVC assessment does not mark exploitation as active. That does not mean it has not been attacked: vendors and researchers can report attacks before CISA lists them. No public exploit code is tracked.Source: cve.now feed data
What does this mean?
The public sortDirection Livewire property reaches the naturalSort order-by query without proper protection, which allows SQL injection. The advisory says this can read arbitrary database data, including other tables, password hashes and tokens.Source: github.com, github.com
Which versions are affected by CVE-2026-65971?
livewire-powergrid: from 6.0.0 before 6.10.4.Source: cve.now feed data
Am I affected, and how do I check?
Livewire PowerGrid versions from 6.0.0 up to but not including 6.10.4 are in scope. The bug requires a PowerGrid table that uses a naturalSort column, so check the installed package version and whether any table defines a naturalSort column.Source: github.com, github.com
How do I fix CVE-2026-65971?
Upgrade livewire-powergrid to 6.10.4, the version the advisory lists as the fix. No workaround is given in the checked facts.Source: github.com, github.com
