CVE-2026-15054: CWE-862 Missing Authorization in Bit Form
The Bit Form WordPress plugin before 3.1.2 does not enforce a form's active/published status on its public form-submission handlers, allowing unauthenticated users to submit entries to, and fire the configured workflows (such as email notifications) of forms the site owner has deactivated or unpublished.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The Bit Form WordPress plugin prior to version 3.1.2 contains a missing authorization vulnerability (CWE-862) where the plugin fails to verify the active or published status of forms on its public submission endpoints. As a result, unauthenticated attackers can submit data to forms that are intended to be inactive or unpublished, potentially triggering configured workflows like email notifications without proper authorization.
Potential Impact
Unauthenticated users can submit entries to inactive or unpublished forms, potentially causing unintended workflows such as email notifications to be triggered. This could lead to spam, unauthorized data submission, or workflow disruptions. There is no indication of direct data breach or remote code execution from the provided information.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no official fix or patch is indicated, users should monitor the vendor's announcements for updates. Until a fix is available, consider disabling or removing the Bit Form plugin if inactive forms must not accept submissions.
