CVE-2026-80439, 6 Sep 2026
The Redirection for Contact Form 7 WordPress plugin from 2.2.7 before 3.2.11 does not prevent shortcodes in submitted form values from being executed when it substitutes those values into an action's settings and then processes those settings for shortcodes, allowing unauthenticated users to run any shortcode registered on the site and read its output. CVE record
CVE-2025-14800, 21 Dec 2025
The Redirection for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file uploads due to missing file type validation in the 'move_file_to_upload' function in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.7. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to copy arbitrary files on the affected site's server. If 'allow_url_fopen' is set to 'On', it is possible to upload a remote file to the server. CVE record
CVE-2025-9562, 18 Oct 2025
The Redirection for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's qs_date shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. CVE record
CVE-2025-8289, 20 Aug 2025
The Redirection for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.4 via deserialization of untrusted input in the delete_associated_files function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject a PHP Object. This vulnerability may be exploited by unauthenticated attackers when a form is present on the site with a file upload action, and doesn't affect sites with PHP version > 8. This vulnerability also requires the 'Redirection For Contact Form 7 Extension - Create Post' extension to be installed and activated in order to be exploited. No known POP chain is present in the vulnerable software, which means this vulnerability has no impact unless another plugin or theme containing a POP chain is installed on the site. If a POP chain is present via an additional plugin or theme installed on the target system, it may allow the attacker to perform actions like delete arbitrary files, retrieve sensitive data, or execute code depending on the POP chain present. We confirmed there is a usable gadget in Contact Form 7 plugin that makes arbitrary file deletion possible when installed with this plugin. Given Contact Form 7 is a requirement of this plugin, it is likely that any site with this plugin and the 'Redirection For Contact Form 7 Extension - Create Post' extension enabled is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion. CVE record
CVE-2025-8141, 20 Aug 2025
The Redirection for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the delete_associated_files function in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.4. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files on the server, which can easily lead to remote code execution when the right file is deleted (such as wp-config.php). CVE record
CVE-2025-8145, 20 Aug 2025
The Redirection for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.4 via deserialization of untrusted input in the get_lead_fields function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject a PHP Object. The additional presence of a POP chain in a Contact Form 7 plugin allows attackers to delete arbitrary files. Additionally, in certain server configurations, Remote Code Execution is possible CVE record
CVE-2021-36913, 11 Oct 2022
Unauthenticated Options Change and Content Injection vulnerability in Qube One Redirection for Contact Form 7 plugin <= 2.4.0 at WordPress allows attackers to change options and inject scripts into the footer HTML. Requires an additional extension (plugin) AccessiBe. CVE record
CVE-2022-0250, 4 Jul 2022
The Redirection for Contact Form 7 WordPress plugin before 2.5.0 does not escape a link generated before outputting it in an attribute, leading to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting CVE record
