What is CVE-2026-28803?

CVE-2026-28803 is a medium-severity missing authorization vulnerability in open-formulieren open-forms, published on 11 Mar 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

Official description

Open Forms allows users create and publish smart forms. Prior to 3.3.13 and 3.4.5, to be able to cosign, the cosigner receives an e-mail with instructions or a deep-link to start the cosign flow. The submission reference is communicated so that the user can retrieve the submission to be cosigned. Attackers can guess a code or modify the received code to look up arbitrary submissions, after logging in (with DigiD/eHerkenning/... depending on form configuration). This vulnerability is fixed in 3.3.13 and 3.4.5.
