  • May 22, 2024Contact Form Plugin by Fluent Forms for Quiz, Survey, and Drag & Drop WP Form Builder: PHP Object InjectionCVE-2024-4157 · WordPress plugins & themes · reported by WordfenceHigh 7.5

    The Contact Form Plugin by Fluent Forms for Quiz, Survey, and Drag & Drop WP Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.15 via deserialization of untrusted input in the extractDynamicValues function.
