CVE-2026-2002: Forminator Forms – Contact Form, Payment Form & Custom Form Builder <= 1.50.2 - Authenticated (Administrator+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting

The Forminator Forms – Contact Form, Payment Form & Custom Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the form_name parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.50.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The plugin allows admins to give form management permissions to lower level users, which could make this exploitable by users such as subscribers.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

CVE-2026-2002 affects the Forminator Forms WordPress plugin through version 1.50.2. A user with form management privileges could save malicious script in a form name, causing it to run when the affected page is viewed. Business risk is limited by required privileges, but delegated form access can expand exposure beyond full administrators.

Executive priority

Handle in the normal vulnerability remediation cycle, with faster action for sites where non-admin users can manage forms or where administrator accounts are weakly protected.

Technical view

Stored XSS exists in the form_name parameter because of insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. The CVSS 3.1 score is 4.4: network reachable, high complexity, high privileges required, scope changed, low confidentiality and integrity impact, no availability impact. The issue is classified as CWE-79.

Likely exposure

WordPress sites running Forminator Forms <= 1.50.2 are potentially exposed, especially if non-admin users have been granted form management permissions.

Exploitation context

No KEV listing or provided source indicates active exploitation. Exploitation requires authenticated access with administrator-level or delegated form management capability, making insider, compromised account, or over-permissioned user scenarios most relevant.

Researcher notes

The public data names affected versions through 1.50.2 and references a WordPress Trac changeset, but the provided bundle does not clearly name a fixed release. Avoid assuming exploit activity or a specific patch version without vendor confirmation.

Mitigation direction

  • Update Forminator Forms beyond version 1.50.2 when vendor guidance or WordPress updates are available.
  • Restrict form management permissions to trusted administrators only.
  • Review delegated plugin capabilities for subscribers or other low-privilege users.
  • Remove or correct suspicious form names containing script-like content.

Validation and detection

  • Inventory WordPress sites using Forminator Forms.
  • Confirm installed plugin versions and flag versions <= 1.50.2.
  • Review which roles or users can manage Forminator forms.
  • Inspect existing form names for unexpected script-like content.
  • Monitor vendor and WordPress plugin advisories for fixed-version details.
