CVE-2026-1674 — Gutena Forms security vulnerability

Medium CVSS 6.5

The Gutena Forms – Contact Form, Survey Form, Feedback Form, Booking Form, and Custom Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to missing authorization within the save_gutena_forms_schema() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.0. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to update option values to a structured array value on the WordPress site. This can be leveraged to update an option that would create an error on the site and deny service to legitimate users or be used to set some values, that would, for example enable site user registration when it is explicitly disabled.

Matched remediation archetype

Authorization bypass, IDOR, and cross-tenant access

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Map object and action authorization checks across API, UI, batch, import/export, and background-job paths.
  • Identify tenant, ownership, role, and policy boundaries for affected resources and administrative operations.
  • Use synthetic fixtures to compare intended access matrices without accessing another user's real data.

Remediate safely

  • Enforce server-side authorization at each resource access and state transition using the authenticated principal and trusted tenant context.
  • Scope data queries by tenant and ownership; treat client-supplied identifiers, roles, and policy claims as untrusted.
  • Add deny-by-default policy tests for horizontal and vertical access across every affected transport.
