Contact Form vCard Generator <= 2.4 - Missing Authorization to Unauthenticated Sensitive Information Exposure via 'wp-gvc-cf-download-id' Parameter

View on CVE.org

Published Jan 9, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 5.3 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed

Description

The Contact Form vCard Generator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on the 'wp_gvccf_check_download_request' function in all versions up to, and including, 2.4. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to export sensitive Contact Form 7 submission data via the 'wp-gvc-cf-download-id' parameter, including names, phone numbers, email addresses, and messages.

Analysis

Technical impact

The Contact Form vCard Generator plugin for WordPress contains a missing capability check in the wp_gvccf_check_download_request function. This flaw allows unauthenticated users to trigger the wp-gvc-cf-download-id parameter and exfiltrate Contact Form 7 submissions, including names, phone numbers, email addresses, and messages. The vulnerability directly compromises the confidentiality of user‑submitted data.

Affected Systems

All installations of the Contact Form vCard Generator plugin version 2.4 and earlier, distributed by ashishajani for WordPress sites, are affected. The plugin is deployed in every instance that has not been upgraded beyond version 2.4.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.3 indicates a medium impact, while the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a low likelihood of exploitation. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers can exploit this weakness by sending unauthenticated HTTP requests that include a wp-gvc-cf-download-id parameter to the plugin’s endpoint, allowing widespread data extraction without requiring any credentials.

Affected Products

Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

Upgrade the Contact Form vCard Generator plugin to the latest version available from the WordPress plugin repository or the vendor site, which should include the missing capability check.
If an immediate upgrade is not possible, restrict access to the wp-gvc-cf-download-id endpoint by enforcing authentication—e.g., use .htaccess rules or a web‑application firewall to block unauthenticated requests.
If the vCard export feature is unnecessary, disable or remove the plugin entirely, preventing the exposed data export capability from being available.
