MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | The plugin must be installed and active; because the CVSS vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, exploitation is remote, unauthenticated, and requires no user interaction against what appears to be a default configuration. The specific prerequisite - the exact plugin feature, AJAX/admin-post action, or 'access control security level' that is missing an authorization check - is NOT described in the available sources, so the precise trigger is unverified. Limiting factors: impact is confined to integrity (C:N/A:N, I:L), meaning the attacker can perform some unauthorized modification but cannot read sensitive data or cause downtime via this flaw; real-world risk is further bounded by the plugin being one component rather than core infrastructure. |
| Impact | This is a moderate-severity Missing Authorization flaw (CWE-862, CVSS 5.3) whose impact is deliberately narrow: the vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N describes a remotely reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated issue (PR:N) with low integrity impact and NO confidentiality or availability impact (C:N/A:N). In plain terms, an unauthenticated actor can invoke some action normally gated behind a higher access level, but the damage is limited to partial unauthorized modification of data/state, not data theft or outage. No EPSS probability is provided in the input, there is no CISA KEV listing, and no public exploit is identified. The vuln.today decision label is 'this_month' - a routine patch-cycle priority, not an emergency. The signals are internally consistent (low, bounded CVSS aligns with a non-KEV, non-urgent label), so this reads as a genuine-but-low-urgency issue rather than a high-CVSS-but-overhyped item or an understated sleeper. The main caveat is specificity: the description ('Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels') does not name the exact endpoint or action affected, so the concrete integrity impact cannot be pinned down from the available data. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An unauthenticated attacker sends a crafted HTTP request directly to a plugin endpoint (e.g., an AJAX or admin-post action) that fails to verify the caller's authorization, performing an action that should require an authenticated/privileged user. Because the CVSS vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, this needs no login, no user interaction, and only a reachable WordPress site running the plugin. No public exploit code is identified at time of analysis; the only reference is the Patchstack advisory. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 26, 2026
Missing authorization (CWE-862) in the WordPress plugin Contact Form by Supsystic, affecting all versions through 1.10.7, lets a remote attacker reach functionality that should have been gated by an access-control check without authenticating. The assessed vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N, 5.3) confines the impact to low integrity - an attacker may be able to make some unauthorized modification, but cannot disclose data or disrupt availability through this flaw. The precise plugin feature or action that lacks the authorization check is not described in the available sources, and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; priority is rated this_month.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch or fixed version is identified in the available data at time of analysis, so the affected range should be treated as open through 1.10.7 and the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/contact-form-by-supsystic/vulnerability/wordpress-contact-form-by-supsystic-plugin-1-10-7-broken-access-control-vulnerability?_s_id=cve) should be monitored for a corrected release before upgrading. Where the plugin is not essential, deactivating and removing it eliminates the exposed surface entirely, at the cost of losing the contact form functionality; where it must stay active, note that because the trigger action is undocumented a narrowly scoped WAF or capability restriction cannot be reliably written, so compensating effort is better spent on detecting unexpected changes to form configuration, submissions, and plugin settings, consistent with the integrity-only impact. Any interim control should be validated against the plugin's own behavior rather than assumed to close the issue.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The target is a WordPress plugin distributed outside the core release cycle, identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:supsystic:contact_form_by_supsystic:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* and reported through Patchstack (EUVD-2026-109737). The root cause class is CWE-862 Missing Authorization, i.e. broken access control: a function or endpoint that should verify the caller's capability or nonce performs its action without that check. Because the assessed vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, the affected path is reachable over the network, at low complexity, with no credentials and no user interaction, which is consistent with an unauthenticated plugin endpoint such as an AJAX or admin-post action, though the specific route, action name, and required parameters are not stated in the available evidence and remain unverified. Severity is bounded by the scope and impact metrics: S:U, C:N, I:L, A:N mean the flaw stays within the plugin's own security authority and yields only limited unauthorized modification rather than data theft or denial of service.
