max 4.4.3.
Status
vulnerable

MW WP Form # CVE-2023-6559

CVE, Research URL

CVE-2023-6559

Application

MW WP Form

Date
Dec 16, 2023
Research Description
The MW WP Form plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.3. This is due to the plugin not properly validating the path of an uploaded file prior to deleting it. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files, including the wp-config.php file, which can make site takeover and remote code execution possible.
Affected versions
max 5.0.4.
Status
vulnerable

MW WP Form # CVE-2026-5436

CVE, Research URL

CVE-2026-5436

Application

MW WP Form

Date
Apr 09, 2026
Research Description
The MW WP Form plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Move/Read in all versions up to and including 5.1.1. This is due to insufficient validation of the $name parameter (upload field key) passed to the generate_user_file_dirpath() function, which uses WordPress's path_join() — a function that returns absolute paths unchanged, discarding the intended base directory. The attacker-controlled key is injected via the mwf_upload_files[] POST parameter, which is loaded into the plugin's Data model via _set_request_valiables(). During form processing, regenerate_upload_file_keys() iterates over these keys and calls generate_user_filepath() with the attacker-supplied key as the $name argument — the key survives validation because the targeted file (e.g., wp-config.php) genuinely exists at the absolute path. The _get_attachments() method then re-reads the same surviving keys and passes the resolved file path to move_temp_file_to_upload_dir(), which calls rename() to move the file into the uploads folder. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to move arbitrary files on the server, which can easily lead to remote code execution when the right file is moved (such as wp-config.php). The vulnerability is only exploitable if a file upload field is added to the form and the “Saving inquiry data in database” option is enabled.
Affected versions
max 5.1.2.
Status
vulnerable

CVE-2026-4347

Application

MW WP Form

Date
Apr 02, 2026
Research Description
The MW WP Form plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file moving due to insufficient file path validation via the 'generate_user_filepath' function and the 'move_temp_file_to_upload_dir' function in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.0. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to move arbitrary files on the server, which can easily lead to remote code execution when the right file is moved (such as wp-config.php). The vulnerability is only exploitable if a file upload field is added to the form and the “Saving inquiry data in database” option is enabled.
Affected versions
max 5.1.1.

CVE, Research URL

CVE-2026-6206

Application

MW WP Form

Date
May 14, 2026
Research Description
The MW WP Form plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.2 via the _get_post_property_from_querystring() function due to insufficient restrictions on which posts can be included. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to extract data from password protected, private, or draft posts that they should not have access to.
Affected versions
max 5.1.3.

MW WP Form # CVE-2026-8853

CVE, Research URL

CVE-2026-8853

Application

MW WP Form

Date
Jun 10, 2026
Research Description
The MW WP Form plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'memo' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with editor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Because the memo value is stored via update_post_meta() rather than wp_insert_post(), WordPress's built-in kses and unfiltered_html protections do not apply, allowing attackers to break out of the textarea element via injected closing tags regardless of role-based content filtering.
Affected versions
max 5.1.4.
Status
vulnerable
