Queries could bypass the _wp_sqlite_ prefix guard by changing letter case or declaring foreign keys that reference internal tables. SQLite resolves ASCII identifiers case insensitively, while foreign-key references skipped the guard entirely.

This change rejects both forms of reserved references. Prefix checks are now case insensitive, and CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE validate foreign-key identifiers before recording metadata. Regression tests cover rejected references, preserved schema and data, later table drops, and valid names and foreign keys.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Reserved-prefix checks now handle mixed-case and qualified identifiers consistently, including identifiers in foreign-key references and savepoints, and remain consistent when ANSI_QUOTES is enabled.
  • Invalid foreign-key references are rejected without changing existing tables or schema metadata.
  • Identifiers that only resemble reserved names remain usable, and table-option changes continue to work without foreign-key identifier validation.

Walkthrough

The change makes reserved-prefix matching case-insensitive and validates identifiers in foreign-key REFERENCES clauses during CREATE TABLE and schema-changing ALTER TABLE processing. Tests cover rejected statements, preserved table state, and accepted identifiers.

Changes: Identifier validation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Reserved-prefix checks packages/mysql-on-sqlite/src/sqlite/class-wp-mysql-on-sqlite.php, packages/mysql-on-sqlite/tests/WP_MySQL_On_SQLite_Tests.php	Reserved-prefix matching is now case-insensitive. Tests cover mixed-case and qualified names, ANSI_QUOTES, several SQL operations, savepoints, and names that resemble the reserved prefix.
Foreign-key reference validation packages/mysql-on-sqlite/src/sqlite/class-wp-mysql-on-sqlite.php, packages/mysql-on-sqlite/tests/WP_MySQL_On_SQLite_Tests.php	CREATE TABLE and schema-changing ALTER TABLE validate identifiers under foreign-key REFERENCES clauses before recording schema metadata. Tests cover rejected statements, preserved existing table state, and accepted references.

Provide an upgrade path for existing names.

The previous check allowed a table such as _WP_SQLITE_orders. After an upgrade, queries and ALTER TABLE against that table fail, so users cannot access or rename it through the MySQL interface. The configurator has no migration for these names. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Provide pre-upgrade detection and a supported migration path for existing user-owned identifiers.
