Vulnerability Overview

The MetForm – Contact Form, Survey, Quiz, & Custom Form Builder for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in versions up to, and including, 4.1.0. This is due to the use of a forgeable cookie value derived only from the entry ID and current user ID without a server-side secret. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to access form submission entry data via MetForm shortcodes for entries created within the transient TTL (default is 15 minutes).

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 4.1.1, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-287 (Improper Authentication) When an actor claims to have a given identity, the product does not prove or insufficiently proves that the claim is correct.
