CVE-2026-14556
Unauthenticated HTML Injection via Referral Value in HappyForms
CVSS 5.4 / 10
Summary
An HTML Injection vulnerability exists in the WordPress HappyForms plugin in versions prior to 1.26.15. The plugin does not sanitise or escape a user-controlled referral value before embedding it in the form notification email.
An unauthenticated attacker can inject arbitrary HTML into the emails site administrators receive, by submitting a form with a crafted referral value.
Technical Details
The referral value supplied with a form submission is embedded into the notification email without sanitization or output escaping, so attacker-controlled HTML passes through unchanged.
Attack vector: Unauthenticated form submission with a crafted referral value, delivered to administrators via the notification email.
Impact
- Arbitrary HTML injected into administrator notification emails
- Phishing and social-engineering content delivered to site administrators
- Confidentiality and integrity impact on email content
Remediation
Update HappyForms to version 1.26.15 or later.
