The Forminator Forms - Contact Form, Payment Form & Custom Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 1.55.0.2 via the 'draft' parameter due to missing validation on a user controlled key. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to enumerate sequential integer entry IDs via the 'draft' parameter and read other users' saved draft form data, including names, email addresses, phone numbers, addresses, and free-form message content. This is only exploitable on forms that have the 'Save and Continue' feature enabled.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated enumeration of sequential draft entry IDs in the Forminator Forms WordPress plugin (all versions up to and including 1.55.0.2) exposes other users' saved draft form submissions - including names, email addresses, phone numbers, postal addresses, and free-form message content - to any remote attacker who can iterate integer values on the 'draft' parameter. The root cause is CWE-639: the plugin retrieves draft records by a user-supplied integer key without validating that the requesting session owns the referenced entry. Exploitation is constrained to forms where the 'Save and Continue' feature is explicitly enabled; no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and a fix commit is referenced in the WordPress plugin repository.
Technical ContextAI
Forminator Forms is a WordPress plugin developed by WPMU Dev (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:wpmudev:forminator_forms_-_contact_form,_payment_form_&_custom_form_builder:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) offering contact, payment, and custom form building functionality. The 'Save and Continue' feature stores incomplete form submissions as draft entries with sequentially assigned integer IDs. The vulnerability resides in two code paths: the form rendering logic in class-render-form.php (lines 2000 and 2011) and the entry retrieval logic in class-form-entry-model.php (lines 160 and 212), as confirmed by Wordfence and corroborated by WordPress plugin repository source references for both tags 1.55.0 and 1.52.2. CWE-639 (Authorization Through User-Controlled Key) describes the root cause precisely: the application uses a developer-controlled primary key that is also user-controllable without enforcing ownership checks, allowing horizontal privilege escalation across user records. Because IDs are sequential integers, an attacker requires no knowledge of other users' sessions or tokens - simple incrementing enumeration suffices.
RemediationAI
Update the Forminator Forms plugin to a version beyond 1.55.0.2; a fix commit is referenced in the WordPress plugin repository changeset at https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?reponame=&old=3593819%40forminator&new=3593819%40forminator, though the exact patched release version is not independently confirmed from the data available. If immediate patching is not feasible, the most effective compensating control is to disable the 'Save and Continue' feature on all active Forminator forms, as the vulnerability is only exploitable when this feature is enabled - disabling it eliminates the attack surface entirely with no impact on standard form submission functionality. Sites that require draft-saving for workflow reasons should consider restricting the affected endpoints via WAF rules targeting anomalous 'draft' parameter enumeration patterns (rapid sequential integer requests from a single IP) as a secondary measure, acknowledging that this is a rate-limiting mitigation rather than a fix.
