| Exploitation Conditions | The target site must have the Bricksforge WordPress plugin installed and active at version 3.1.8.4 or earlier and reachable over the network on the standard WordPress HTTP(S) interface; no authentication, user interaction, or non-default configuration is required per the CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N. Limiting factors are narrow: exploitation is bounded only by whether the specific vulnerable endpoint or feature within Bricksforge is reachable (some plugin features may only be invoked when certain widgets or forms have been placed on a page, which the advisory does not detail), and impact is constrained to confidentiality with no write or denial-of-service primitive. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated exploit with high confidentiality impact but no integrity or availability effect, which aligns with a pure information-disclosure class bug. There is no EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public proof-of-concept referenced in the available data, so while the technical preconditions are trivial, evidence of mass exploitation does not currently exist. Real-world risk is meaningful for any site running a vulnerable Bricksforge build because the disclosed data is presumably non-trivial (otherwise CVSS would not score C:H), but priority should be calibrated against what specific data the plugin exposes - Patchstack's advisory is the authoritative source and should be consulted for the data category before triaging this above other high-CVSS WordPress disclosures. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A remote attacker scans the public internet for WordPress installations exposing Bricksforge fingerprints, then issues an unauthenticated HTTP request to the vulnerable plugin endpoint and parses the response for sensitive values such as configuration data, internal identifiers, or PII handled by the plugin's form or dynamic-data features. No login, user interaction, or special tooling is required, and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, though the low complexity makes independent rediscovery straightforward once the affected endpoint is known. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jun 17, 2026
Unauthenticated sensitive data exposure in the Bricksforge WordPress plugin versions 3.1.8.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to retrieve confidential information without any credentials. The flaw, tracked under CWE-201 (Insertion of Sensitive Information Into Sent Data), carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 7.5 driven entirely by confidentiality impact, and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
Upstream fix availability is implied by the '<= 3.1.8.4' phrasing in the Patchstack advisory but a released patched version is not independently confirmed in the provided data; site operators should consult the Patchstack record at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/bricksforge/vulnerability/wordpress-bricksforge-plugin-3-1-8-4-sensitive-data-exposure-vulnerability and upgrade to the next Bricksforge release above 3.1.8.4 as soon as the vendor publishes it. Until a fixed version is installed, compensating controls include deactivating the Bricksforge plugin entirely (which will break any forms, dynamic content, or admin workflows it provides), restricting access to the affected WordPress endpoints with a WAF rule scoped to Bricksforge AJAX or REST routes (which may break legitimate front-end behavior if the plugin uses those routes for anonymous visitors), and enabling Patchstack's virtual patching service if already subscribed. Reviewing access logs for unusual hits to plugin-specific endpoints is recommended to detect prior probing.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Bricksforge is a third-party add-on plugin for the Bricks Builder page-building ecosystem on WordPress, extending it with form handling, dynamic data, and admin-side workflow features. The CPE 'cpe:2.3:a:bricksforge:bricksforge' identifies the vendor's commercial plugin, and the underlying weakness CWE-201 (Insertion of Sensitive Information Into Sent Data) means the plugin embeds confidential values into responses or assets that are reachable without authentication - typically AJAX endpoints, REST routes, or rendered front-end output that should have been gated behind capability checks. Patchstack, who reported the issue, specializes in WordPress plugin vulnerabilities and coordinates fixes with plugin authors.

DescriptionCVE.org
Unauthenticated Sensitive Data Exposure in Bricksforge <= 3.1.8.4 versions.
Executive ViewAI
The Bricksforge WordPress plugin (versions 3.1.8.4 and earlier) allows unauthenticated remote attackers to retrieve sensitive data without credentials, affecting any organization using these versions. With no vendor patch currently available, the exposure window remains open for exploitation. This requires immediate inventory and interim protective measures to minimize risk of confidential information disclosure.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: disable or uninstall the plugin if feasible; implement WAF-level access restrictions on Bricksforge endpoints; enforce application-level privilege minimization for database and API access used by the plugin; enable comprehensive audit logging of all plugin activities and establish regular log review procedures to detect unauthorized data access.
