Forminator Forms: Unauthenticated disclosure of post-payment content
Summary
The Forminator Forms WordPress plugin does not verify that a Stripe Checkout payment has completed before returning the after-payment response of a pending submission. Unauthenticated visitors can therefore obtain the post-payment redirect URL and thank-you message of a payment-gated form without paying. The attack requires no account and little complexity; the impact depends on what the post-payment pages contain.
Affected
- Forminator Forms 1.58.0 to 1.58.3 (before 1.58.4)
- Forms with Stripe Checkout payment enabled
Fixed in
- Forminator Forms 1.58.4
- Fix status for this CVE is not confirmed by the vendor changelog, which does not name the CVE.
Workaround
- Unknown. No vendor-specific workaround was found; upgrading is the remedy.
- Interim measure (not from sources): temporarily disable paid Forminator forms whose post-payment pages contain sensitive content.
Exploitation
- No evidence of exploitation in the wild; not listed in CISA KEV.
- CISA SSVC: exploitation none, automatable yes, technical impact partial.
- Public exploit code is not confirmed; the WPScan reference is tagged 'exploit' and its content could not be checked.
Our recommendation
- Update Forminator Forms to version 1.58.4 or later in the normal update cycle, without long delay.
- Check whether paid forms expose download links or member-only content on post-payment pages.
- Until patched, consider temporarily disabling paid forms with sensitive post-payment content.
- Review the same update, which also covers related issue CVE-2026-111579.
Public exploits
PoC-in-GitHub, Metasploit and Exploit-DB list nothing for this CVE.
