Frequently Asked Questions

1

Which sites are exposed to this disclosure?

Sites using affected MetForm versions before 4.3.1 are exposed when the HubSpot Forms integration is enabled. The debug file is written on every form submission under that condition.

2

Does an attacker need an account or form-submission access to retrieve the data?

No. The disclosed debug file can be read by unauthenticated attackers. The available data does not state that an attacker must submit a form themselves.

3

What information could be exposed?

The file may expose upstream API response data, including correlation identifiers and cookies.

4

How can I determine whether the issue may already have affected my site?

Verify whether the HubSpot Forms integration is enabled and whether the site runs a MetForm version earlier than 4.3.1. Review the web root for the debug file created by MetForm and assess whether it was publicly accessible.
