Insecure Direct Object Reference in Ninja Forms Plugin for WordPress

CVE-2025-11924

What is CVE-2025-11924?

The Ninja Forms plugin for WordPress is susceptible to Insecure Direct Object Reference, affecting versions through 3.13.2. The vulnerability arises when the plugin fails to adequately verify user authorization before exposing form metadata and submission content via its ninja-forms-views REST endpoints. Consequently, unauthenticated attackers can exploit this issue to access arbitrary form definitions and submission records if they can acquire a leaked bearer token while loading any page with the Submissions Table block. Note that a patch was provided in version 3.13.1; however, it inadvertently created a new REST API endpoint that allowed the generation of valid bearer tokens for any form ID, rendering the patch ineffective.
