CVE-2026-6214
Forminator Forms <= 1.53.0 - Missing Authorization to Authenticated (Subscriber+) Scheduled Form Submission Export via forminator_export_entries Action on wp_loaded Hook
The Forminator Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Missing Authorization in versions up to and including 1.53.0. This is due to the listen_for_saving_export_schedule() function in library/class-export.php failing to perform a capability check before saving the scheduled export configuration, unlike the parallel listen_for_csv_export() function which correctly verifies user permissions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access to configure a scheduled export job that emails all form submissions to an attacker-controlled email address, resulting in sensitive data exfiltration.
