Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an authenticated WordPress session with at minimum the Contributor role - confirmed by the CVSS PR:L metric. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.3 (Medium) is calibrated by the PR:L metric, which correctly reflects the Contributor authentication prerequisite - a meaningful barrier that eliminates unauthenticated mass exploitation. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker registers or compromises a Contributor-level account on a WordPress site running RomethemeForm For Elementor 1.2.6 or earlier, then sends a crafted POST request to the plugin's unprotected AJAX or REST endpoint - an action normally restricted to higher-privileged roles. Because the authorization check is absent, WordPress processes the request and the attacker successfully modifies form configurations, submission data, or plugin settings beyond their permitted scope. … |
| Remediation | Update RomethemeForm For Elementor to a version released after 1.2.6; the exact patched version number is not explicitly confirmed in the available intelligence data, so administrators should check the WordPress plugin repository or the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/romethemeform/vulnerability/wordpress-romethemeform-for-elementor-plugin-1-2-6-broken-access-control-vulnerability for the latest release. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
