The Kirki - Freeform Page Builder, Website Builder & Customizer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 6.1.1.

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a valid WordPress account on the target site with custom-level access or above - this threshold includes any subscriber, contributor, author, editor, or custom role, meaning virtually any authenticated WordPress user qualifies. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The NVD CVSS 3.1 score of 4.3 (Medium) accurately captures the bounded impact: the attack vector is network (AV:N), complexity is low (AC:L), privilege requirement is low (PR:L), no user interaction is needed (UI:N), scope is unchanged (S:U), and only confidentiality is affected at a low level (C:L/I:N/A:N). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
