DescriptionCVE.org

The Everest Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 3.4.4. This is due to the load_previous_field_value() method in class-evf-form-task.php accepting arbitrary URL values from $_POST data for upload fields without domain restriction, which are then passed to wp_remote_head() in the get_local_file_size() method of class-evf-form-fields-upload.php. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to force the WordPress server to make outbound HTTP HEAD requests to arbitrary URLs by submitting a form with an upload field containing a malicious URL while leaving a required field empty to trigger form re-rendering.

AnalysisAI

Server-Side Request Forgery in the Everest Forms WordPress plugin (all versions up to and including 3.4.4) enables unauthenticated remote attackers to force the WordPress server to issue arbitrary outbound HTTP HEAD requests to attacker-controlled URLs. The flaw resides in the plugin's upload field handling: when a form submission triggers re-rendering due to a missing required field, unsanitized POST-supplied URLs are passed directly to WordPress's wp_remote_head() without any domain restriction. …
