CVE-2026-1782 - Metform Pro Plugin

CVE-2026-1782

The MetForm Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Improper Input Validation in all versions up to, and including, 3.9.7 This is due to the payment integrations (Stripe/PayPal) trusting a user-submitted calculation field value without recomputing or validating it against the configured form price. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to manipulate the payment amount via the 'mf-calculation' field in the form submission REST request granted there exists a specific form with this particular configuration.
