Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the Void Contact Form 7 Widget For Elementor plugin allows attackers to induce authenticated users to perform unintended actions by tricking them into submitting malicious requests, likely through the plugin's form submission endpoints that lack proper anti-CSRF token validation.

MitigationImplement anti-CSRF tokens (nonces) on all form actions and validate the Origin/Referer headers to ensure requests originate from legitimate sources; update to plugin version 2.1.2 or later if available.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify the Void Contact Form 7 Widget For Elementor plugin is installed
    Navigate to WordPress admin > Plugins and look for 'Void Contact Form 7 Widget For Elementor' in the installed plugins list, or inspect the plugin directory at wp-content/plugins/void-elementor-contact-form7
    Affected if The plugin appears in the installed plugins list regardless of activation status
  2. Check the installed plugin version
    In WordPress admin > Plugins, find the plugin and view the version number displayed beneath the plugin name, or read the main plugin file header to extract the Version field
    Affected if The version number is lower than 2.2 (for example, 2.1, 2.0, 1.x)
  3. Confirm Elementor Page Builder is active
    Navigate to WordPress admin > Plugins and verify that Elementor Website Builder is installed and activated, as this plugin is an Elementor widget extension
    Affected if Elementor is installed and the Void Contact Form 7 Widget plugin is in use
  4. Identify active form widgets using the plugin
    Edit any page or post with Elementor, open the widget panel, and search for 'Contact Form 7' or 'Void' widgets to see if any form widgets from this plugin are placed on pages
    Affected if Form widgets from the Void Contact Form 7 Widget plugin are present on published pages
  5. Inspect form submission endpoint for CSRF protection
    Use browser developer tools > Network tab, submit a form using the plugin, and inspect the request headers and form data for a nonce token (wpnonce, _wpnonce, or similar) or check if the plugin admin settings reveal CSRF token configuration
    Affected if The form submission request contains no anti-CSRF token parameter and the plugin version is below 2.2

A user is affected if the Void Contact Form 7 Widget For Elementor plugin version is below 2.2 and the plugin is installed and active with form widgets in use on the site.
