What the vulnerability does

01Description

The Metform Elementor Contact Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to CSV injection in versions up to, and including, 3.3.0. This allows unauthenticated attackers to embed untrusted input into exported CSV files, which can result in code execution when these files are downloaded and opened on a local system with a vulnerable configuration.

Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms

02Summary

MetForm versions up to 3.3.0 contain a vulnerability that allows an attacker to read sensitive data, modify site content, or disrupt service. The attack requires the victim to visit a malicious link or page, and the impact can extend beyond the form plugin itself to affect the wider site. Update to a version newer than 3.3.0 to resolve this issue.
