Unauthenticated data modification via unpublished form submission
Published Jan 2, 2025 · Updated Apr 29, 2026
Missing authorization in WP Chill Kali Forms 2.3.27 and earlier allows remote attackers to submit data to unpublished forms. The run_form_process_checks function processes a submitted form without first confirming that the referenced form is published. No authentication is required; the bounded consequence is unauthorized form submission and resulting data modification, not disclosure or code execution.
