What the vulnerability does

01Description

The Metform Elementor Contact Form Builder for WordPress is vulnerable to Information Disclosure via the 'mf_transaction_id' shortcode in versions up to, and including, 3.3.1. This allows authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level capabilities or above to obtain sensitive information about the transaction ids of arbitrary form submissions that included payment.

Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms

02Summary

MetForm versions up to 3.3.1 contain an authorization flaw that allows authenticated users with low privileges to access sensitive data they should not see. An attacker with a basic user account can read confidential information stored in the plugin without needing additional interaction. Site administrators should update to a version newer than 3.3.1 to close this access control gap.

04Site Impact
