CVE-2026-11581
MEDIUM 5.9 PoC AVAILABLEThe Kali Forms — Contact Form & Drag-and-Drop Builder WordPress plugin before 2.4.13 does not sanitise a form field's caption before outputting it as a column header on the administrator form-entries screen, allowing users with Contributor-level access or above to store JavaScript that executes in an administrator's session. A missing capability check in the Kali Forms — Contact Form & Drag-and-Drop Builder WordPress plugin before 2.4.13's post-duplication action additionally lets the Contributor publish the malicious form so an administrator renders it.
Public exploit or PoC code exists. Modeled probability is still low, but the barrier to attack is reduced — watch closely.
