CVE-2026-85641
UnknownSummary
The Formidable Forms WordPress plugin before 6.35 does not restrict who can set the identifier recording which user last edited a form entry, and relies on that identifier when deciding whether to strip HTML from stored entry values. This allows unauthenticated visitors to have markup rendered in the admin entry view that would otherwise be removed, and to attribute their submission to an administrator who never made it.
Risk Assessment
The organization is exposed to injection of malicious HTML/JavaScript into the admin panel, which could lead to admin session hijacking or data manipulation. Additionally, false attribution of submissions to an administrator can undermine data integrity and trust in the system.
Recommendation
It is recommended to immediately update the Formidable Forms plugin to version 6.35 or later, which includes a fix restricting who can set the last editor identifier.
Other vulnerabilities in Formidable Forms
See all- CVE-2026-19857Medium
The Formidable Forms WordPress plugin before version 6.35 does not prevent a request-derived value from reaching the WordPress shortcode parser when it substitutes a supported token into a form's custom HTML. This allows unauthenticated visitors to have arbitrary shortcodes, with attacker-chosen attributes, executed server-side on any page displaying an affected form.
- CVE-2026-18331High
The Formidable Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'frm_user_id' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 6.33.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. Unauthenticated attackers can inject arbitrary web scripts that execute when a user accesses an injected page. By forging frm_user_id to match an administrator's user ID, the attacker causes wp_kses_post() to be the only filter, and the script executes automatically.
- CVE-2026-11361Medium
The Formidable Forms WordPress plugin before 6.32.1 does not properly validate the status of a PayPal subscription payment before marking it complete. This allows unauthenticated users to bypass payment and trigger paid form actions — such as digital content access, license delivery, and membership activation — without being charged.
