What is CVE-2026-6214?
CVE-2026-6214 is a medium-severity missing authorization vulnerability in wpmudev Forminator Forms – Contact Form, Payment Form & Custom Form Builder, published on 7 May 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.
Official description
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.
Weakness: CWE-862
