Easy Form Builder by WhiteStudio: Does not validate a submitted value against the stored configuration for some of its form types

The Easy Form Builder by WhiteStudio WordPress plugin before 4.2.0 does not validate a submitted value against the stored configuration for some of its form types, allowing unauthenticated users to create WordPress accounts on a site whose owner has disabled registration.

Description from the National Vulnerability Database, published by WPScan

What to do: Update Easy Form Builder by WhiteStudio to 4.2.0 or newer.

What it means for a small business

Easy Form Builder by WhiteStudio is a WordPress plugin. If your website uses it, the flaw is on your site whether or not anyone has noticed yet: attackers scan the whole internet for the plugins with published flaws, usually within days of a record like this one going public.

Most small-business sites run 15 to 40 plugins, and few owners know the list. You can check from WordPress itself (Plugins, then Installed Plugins), or let our free plugin check look it up by name.
