Unauthenticated Broken Access Control in JetFormBuilder <= 3.6.4.1 versions.
AnalysisAI
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.
Technical ContextAI
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.
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.
