What the vulnerability does
01Description
The MetForm Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Improper Input Validation in all versions up to, and including, 3.9.7 This is due to the payment integrations (Stripe/PayPal) trusting a user-submitted calculation field value without recomputing or validating it against the configured form price. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to manipulate the payment amount via the 'mf-calculation' field in the form submission REST request granted there exists a specific form with this particular configuration.
