incsub forminator Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type
Published Oct 13, 2026 · corrected/updated Oct 13, 2026 · incsub forminator · evidence confidence very high
The Forminator Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in all versions up to, and including, 1.56.1 via the handle_file_upload function. This is due to insufficient file type validation in handle_file_upload, where the dangerous-extension blocklist performs exact-key matching that is bypassed by pipe-alternative MIME type keys, combined with a public submission handler that trusts attacker-controlled upload field configuration injected via a forged Select field value. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload files that may be executable, which ma Initial-access exploit intelligence.
