CVE-2026-1860

Plain English Summary

AI-powered analysis for quick understanding

This vulnerability allows attackers with Contributor-level access or higher to view sensitive form configuration data belonging to other users, including administrators, by simply guessing form IDs. They can access information such as form structures, secret keys for Google reCAPTCHA, and email templates, without needing proper authorization.

Technical Description

The Kali Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.8. This is due to the `get_items_permissions_check()` permission callback on the `/kaliforms/v1/forms/{id}` REST API endpoint only checking for the `edit_posts` capability without verifying that the requesting user has ownership or authorization over the specific form resource. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to read form configuration data belonging to other users (including administrators) by enumerating form IDs. Exposed data includes form field structures, Google reCAPTCHA secret keys (if configured), email notification templates, and server paths.
