CVE-2026-14956
CriticalCVSS 9.8Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk28th percentile - higher than 28% of all known CVEs
Summary
The Bricksforge plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.8.6. This is due to improper validation of the fieldIds parameter in the Pro Forms registration action, which allows attacker-supplied field IDs to be added to the trusted form-field whitelist. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register a new administrator account by submitting a crafted request to a publicly accessible Bricksforge Pro Forms registration form.
Risk Assessment
The risk for the organization is critical because an unauthenticated attacker can gain full control over the WordPress site by creating an administrator account. Successful exploitation requires that the site has a public Bricksforge Pro Forms element configured with the User Registration action.
Recommendation
Immediately update the Bricksforge plugin to a version newer than 3.1.8.6 if available. If no update is available, temporarily disable or remove public Bricksforge Pro Forms registration forms until a patch is released.
