Description
The Bit Form – Contact Form Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized workflow execution due to missing authorization in the triggerWorkFlow function in all versions up to, and including, 2.21.6. This is due to a logic flaw in the nonce verification where the security check only blocks requests when both the nonce verification fails and the user is logged in. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to replay form workflow executions and trigger all configured integrations including webhooks, email notifications, CRM integrations, and automation platforms via the bitforms_trigger_workflow AJAX action granted they can obtain the entry ID and log IDs from a legitimate form submission response.

Impact

The Bit Form – Contact Form Plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized workflow execution caused by a missing authorization check in the triggerWorkFlow logic. The nonce verification only blocks requests when both the nonce fails and the user is logged in, meaning unauthenticated users can supply a valid nonce and replay a previously recorded workflow. Attackers can trigger all configured integrations—including webhooks, email notifications, CRM integrations, and automation platforms—via the bitforms_trigger_workflow AJAX action once they obtain an entry ID and log IDs from a legitimate form submission. This flaw enables remote execution of arbitrary integration actions without authentication, posing a consent abuse and potential data leakage risk.

Affected Systems

WordPress sites running the Bit Form – Custom Contact Form, Multi Step, Conversational Form & Payment Form builder plugin version 2.21.6 or earlier are affected. The vulnerability exists in all releases up to and including 2.21.6.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.5 indicates medium severity; however, the EPSS score is below 1%, suggesting a low likelihood of widespread exploitation at present. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, so there is no known active exploitation. Attackers would need to obtain a legitimate entry ID and log ID, which can be gleaned from a normal form submission, and then send a crafted AJAX request to the bitforms_trigger_workflow action. Because the flaw relies on missing authorization rather than insecure input or remote code execution, the risk is moderate but still significant for sites with active integrations.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the Bit Form plugin to the latest version (after 2.21.6) where the authorization check has been fixed.
  • Optionally disable or restrict any webhook, email, CRM or automation integrations that are not needed immediately to reduce attack surface until the patch is applied.
  • As a temporary workaround, block unauthenticated access to the bitforms_trigger_workflow AJAX action, for example by adding PHP code or a plugin that checks for logged‑in status before executing workflow logic.
  • Monitor plugin configuration and logs for suspicious repeated workflow executions.
