CVE-2026-11579
MEDIUM 5.3 PoC AVAILABLEThe Kali Forms — Contact Form & Drag-and-Drop Builder WordPress plugin before 2.4.17 does not verify that a file upload is made against an existing form configured with a file-upload field, accepting uploads regardless of whether any such form exists, which allows unauthenticated users to upload files to the WordPress Media Library; the uploads are limited to WordPress's default-allowed MIME types, so this does not lead to code execution.
Public exploit or PoC code exists. Modeled probability is still low, but the barrier to attack is reduced — watch closely.
