Unauthenticated Insecure Direct Object References (IDOR) in Formidable Forms Signature Online Contract Automation <= 2.0.1 versions.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated IDOR in the Formidable Forms Signature Online Contract Automation WordPress plugin (≤2.0.1) exposes contract documents and signature records to any remote, unauthenticated attacker who can enumerate object reference identifiers. The CVSS 7.5 (High) rating reflects network-accessible exploitation with no authentication, no user interaction, and high confidentiality impact - consistent with unrestricted read access to potentially sensitive legal and personal contract data. No public exploit code or active exploitation (CISA KEV) has been identified at time of analysis, but the low attack complexity makes this trivially scriptable.
Technical ContextAI
The flaw is classified as CWE-639 (Authorization Through User-Controlled Key), a specific IDOR subtype where application logic uses a user-supplied identifier - typically a predictable numeric or sequential contract/document ID - to retrieve a backend object without verifying whether the requesting party is authorized to access it. The affected product, developed by ApprovMe, is a WordPress plugin that extends Formidable Forms to handle online contract signing workflows, storing signature data and contract documents. CPE: cpe:2.3:a:approveme:formidable_forms_signature_online_contract_automation:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms all versions through 2.0.1 are affected. The root cause is missing or bypassed authorization checks on object retrieval endpoints, not a cryptographic or injection flaw.
RemediationAI
Update the Formidable Forms Signature Online Contract Automation plugin to a version above 2.0.1 if a patched release has been published. Check the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/forms-signature-formidable-online-contract-automation/vulnerability/wordpress-formidable-forms-signature-online-contract-automation-plugin-2-0-1-insecure-direct-object-references-idor-vulnerability and the WordPress plugin repository for the confirmed patched version - no specific fix version number is independently confirmed in the available data. If no update is immediately available, disable the plugin to eliminate the attack surface at the cost of losing contract signing functionality. As a partial compensating control, restrict the plugin's contract retrieval endpoints via WAF rules or server-level IP allowlisting to authenticated or trusted IP ranges only, though this adds operational overhead and may break legitimate use cases. Avoid leaving the plugin active and publicly accessible without access controls if sensitive contract data is stored.
