CVE-2026-110253 Details
Description
The weForms – Easy Drag & Drop Contact Form Builder For WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to limited media file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the weforms_delete_entry_attachments function in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.28 This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary media files on the server. This requires an administrator to permanently delete the poisoned form entry, a routine moderation action for spam-looking submissions that an attacker can prompt through social engineering.
A vulnerability in the weForms WordPress plugin, specifically in versions through 1.6.28, allows for unauthorized deletion of media files. This issue arises from inadequate validation of file paths in the 'weforms_delete_entry_attachments' function. Exploitation requires an administrator to permanently remove a manipulated form entry, a common task for managing spam-like submissions, which an attacker could induce through social engineering.
Users can update to weForms version 1.6.29 or a newer patched version to address this vulnerability.
