Exploitation Conditions

No special conditions are required for exploitation - the CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U confirms remote unauthenticated exploitation against any WordPress installation with JetFormBuilder ≤ 3.6.4.1 installed and activated. The plugin does not need to be in any specific operational mode or non-default configuration; its mere presence and activation is sufficient. Exploitation is bounded by integrity impact only (I:H, C:N, A:N), meaning an attacker can modify data or trigger unauthorized actions but cannot directly read sensitive data or cause a denial of service via this vector. The specific vulnerable endpoint or AJAX action is not disclosed in publicly available data at time of analysis, which provides minor obscurity-based friction but should not be relied upon as a control.

Impact

The CVSS 7.5 score is driven by unauthenticated network access (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) combined with high integrity impact (I:H), which accurately reflects a remotely exploitable, no-credential-required authorization bypass. The absence of confidentiality and availability impact (C:N/A:N) limits the blast radius to write-primitive scenarios - data tampering, form configuration manipulation, or unauthorized action execution. No EPSS score was provided in the input data, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified. No CISA KEV listing and no public POC reduce immediate urgency compared to a weaponized flaw, but the low exploitation complexity (AC:L, PR:N) means that once a POC surfaces, mass exploitation is straightforward. WordPress plugin vulnerabilities of this class are routinely targeted by automated scanners. Priority should be high for any internet-facing WordPress installation running this plugin.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An unauthenticated attacker discovers a WordPress site running JetFormBuilder ≤ 3.6.4.1 via passive fingerprinting (plugin readme.txt version disclosure or HTTP response headers). The attacker sends a crafted HTTP request - likely a REST API call or AJAX request - to a plugin endpoint that lacks a permission_callback check, triggering a privileged action such as modifying form configurations, altering stored submissions, or executing backend plugin actions without credentials. No public POC has been identified at time of analysis, but the low attack complexity makes exploit development straightforward once the specific endpoint is identified.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 06, 2026

Broken access control in the JetFormBuilder WordPress plugin (versions ≤ 3.6.4.1) allows unauthenticated remote attackers to perform privileged actions due to missing authorization checks (CWE-862), resulting in high integrity impact. Reported by Patchstack, the CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N confirms exploitation requires no authentication, no user interaction, and no special configuration beyond having the plugin installed and active. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing have been identified at time of analysis.

RemediationAI

Update JetFormBuilder to a version beyond 3.6.4.1 via the WordPress admin plugin dashboard or wp-cli. The exact patched release version is not independently confirmed from available data - consult the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/jetformbuilder/vulnerability/wordpress-jetformbuilder-plugin-3-6-4-1-broken-access-control-vulnerability and the official WordPress plugin repository changelog to identify the first fixed version before deploying. As a compensating control prior to patching, consider deploying a Web Application Firewall (WAF) rule to block unauthenticated requests to JetFormBuilder's REST API endpoints (typically prefixed /wp-json/jet-form-builder/) and to wp-admin/admin-ajax.php actions registered by the plugin; note this may break legitimate unauthenticated form submissions and should be tested in staging. Disabling the plugin entirely eliminates the attack surface with the trade-off of losing all form functionality.

Technical ContextAI · show details

JetFormBuilder is a WordPress form-building plugin developed by JetMonsters, used for creating complex forms with conditional logic, payments, and custom actions. CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) indicates the plugin exposes one or more REST API endpoints or AJAX actions that execute privileged operations without verifying whether the requesting party holds the necessary capability. WordPress plugins commonly register REST routes or wp_ajax hooks without attaching proper permission_callback checks, which is the canonical root cause of this vulnerability class. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:jetmonsters:jetformbuilder:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms all versions through 3.6.4.1 are affected. The CVSS impact metrics C:N/I:H/A:N indicate the unauthorized action modifies data or configuration rather than disclosing secrets or disrupting availability.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

JetFormBuilder WordPress plugin (v3.6.4.1 and earlier) is vulnerable to unauthenticated remote attackers who can modify form data and settings without authorization, affecting any organization using this plugin. With no patch available from the vendor, immediate action is required to prevent unauthorized form tampering, data manipulation, and potential compliance violations. Leadership should prioritize plugin removal or replacement within 48 hours.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: (1) disable or uninstall the plugin if operationally feasible; (2) restrict HTTP access to form submission endpoints using firewall rules or IP whitelisting; (3) enable WordPress audit logging and configure alerts for unauthorized form configuration changes; (4) perform weekly administrative reviews of form settings and user access; (5) evaluate and test alternative form-building solutions with active vulnerability management programs for immediate migration.
