An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-35909 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ninjaforms Ninja Forms. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-35909/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-35909/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-35909","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-35909/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-35909","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-m439-4cf8-qgfv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service in the Ninja Forms WordPress plugin through uncontrolled resource consumption.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"ninja_forms","vendor":"ninjaforms"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-400","name":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption"}],"description":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability in Saturday Drive Ninja Forms Contact Form – The Drag and Drop Form Builder for WordPress leading to DoS.This issue affects Ninja Forms Contact Form – The Drag and Drop Form Builder for WordPress: from n/a through 3.6.25.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"WordPress Ninja Forms Plugin \u003c= 3.6.25 is vulnerable to Denial of Service Attack","id":"CVE-2023-35909","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ninjaforms:ninja_forms","products":["ninjaforms:ninja_forms"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Quasar form Plugin \u003c= 6.0 is vulnerable to SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2023-35910"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Apache Airflow: Access to DAGs without relevant permission","id":"CVE-2023-35908"},"products":["Ninja Forms Contact Form – The Drag and Drop Form Builder for WordPress"],"published":"2023-12-07","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Ninja-forms \u003c 3.11.1 - Unauthenticated PHP Objection","id":"CVE-2025-9083","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-09-18"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1209","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-05-14"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20981","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in Ninja Forms","id":"CVE-2024-25572","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-04-11"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Ninja Forms \u003c 3.4.34 - Authenticated SendWP Plugin Installation and Client Secret Key Disclosure","id":"CVE-2021-24163","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-04-05"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-16308","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-09-01"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"WordPress Ninja Forms plugin \u003c= 3.6.25 - Contributor+ Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-38386","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-19"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["Saturday Drive"]},"summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service in the Ninja Forms WordPress plugin through uncontrolled resource consumption.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-35909/"}
