What the vulnerability does
01Description
The Vedrixa Forms – User Registration Form, Signup Form & Drag & Drop Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.1. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to overwrite the structure of any form — adding, removing, or altering fields — by writing attacker-controlled data to the plugin's FORMS database table. The 'ajax-nonce' nonce used by this handler is injected into the public frontend via wp_localize_script(), so any authenticated user who visits a page containing a form shortcode can obtain it without any elevated access.
Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms
02Summary
Vedrixa Forms versions 1.1.1 and earlier lack proper authorization checks, allowing authenticated users to modify form data they should not have access to. An attacker with a low-privilege account can alter form submissions or settings belonging to other users. The vulnerability requires login credentials but does not require user interaction beyond normal form submission.
