Frequently Asked Questions

1

Which WordPress deployments are exposed?

The issue affects WordPress multisite networks using Forminator Forms versions earlier than 1.57.0.5. It involves a network-wide setting, so standalone WordPress sites are not indicated by the available information.

2

What level of access does an attacker need?

An attacker must already be an administrator of any individual site within the multisite network. Network administrator access is not required.

3

What is the potential impact after exploitation?

A site-level administrator can execute arbitrary code across the entire multisite network, rather than being limited to the site they administer.

4

What version remediates the issue?

Upgrade Forminator Forms to version 1.57.0.5 or later.
