What is CVE-2026-63429?

CVE-2026-63429 is a high-severity vulnerability in heyform, published on 20 Jul 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

HeyForm is an open-source form builder. Prior to version 3.0.0-rc.9, `POST /api/upload` has no authentication guard, no global guard, no form-context validation, no `openToken` requirement, and no session cookie check. Any anonymous internet user can upload files (PDF, DOC/DOCX, XLS/XLSX, CSV, TXT, MP4, images, etc., up to 10 MB) and receive a permanent public URL on the HeyForm domain. The endpoint is used by both authenticated form creators and unauthenticated form submitters; because no form-context binding exists, every request to it is anonymously accepted. Version 3.0.0-rc.9 contains a patch for the issue.

Weakness: CWE-434, CWE-306
