Hello.

The switch to enable SQLiShield protection against SQL injection attacks blocks my Joomunited WP Table manager plugin from sending SQL request to populate a spreadsheet with some data. Turning the SQLiShield protection off solves the problem but is there a way to maintain SQLiShield protection while authorizing this plugin?

Thanks.

Hello,

first of all, I'd suggest to use something like phpMyAdmin to interact with your database. It's a battle proof tool with a lot of testing and securities, so if you have to pass raw data to the database, that should be your first choice.

That being said, you can create a WAF exception inside Admin Tools to allow those requests. Please take a look at this page of the docs, you will have to understand exactly which URL is called so you can create a rule to disable the WAF: https://www.akeeba.com/documentation/atwp/wafexceptions.html
