NVD · unedited
URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect') vulnerability in CRM Perks Integration for HubSpot and Contact Form 7, WPForms, Elementor, Ninja Forms.This issue affects Integration for HubSpot and Contact Form 7, WPForms, Elementor, Ninja Forms: from n/a through 1.2.8.

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

An open redirect vulnerability in the CRM Perks Integration plugin allows attackers to craft malicious URLs that appear to point to the legitimate site but redirect users to attacker-controlled domains. This occurs due to insufficient validation of redirect parameters in the plugin's integration functionality for HubSpot, Contact Form 7, WPForms, Elementor, and Ninja Forms.

MitigationUpgrade to a patched version beyond 1.2.8. If no patch is available, implement server-side validation of redirect URLs to ensure they only allow trusted internal domains or relative paths, and avoid passing user-controlled input directly to redirect functions.

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. Check plugin version
    In WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and locate 'Crmperks Database For Contact Form 7, Wpforms, Elementor Forms'. The version number is displayed below the plugin name. Alternatively, inspect the main plugin file (usually crmperks.php) and look for the 'Version' header comment.
    Affected if The installed version is lower than 1.2.9 (e.g., 1.2.8, 1.2.7, etc.)
  2. Identify active integrations
    In the WordPress admin, navigate to the CRM Perks plugin settings and review which integrations are enabled. Specifically check for HubSpot, Contact Form 7, WPForms, Elementor Forms, or Ninja Forms integrations that have redirect functionality configured.
    Affected if Any of the affected integrations (HubSpot, Contact Form 7, WPForms, Elementor, or Ninja Forms) are active with redirect settings configured
  3. Test redirect parameter behavior
    Submit a test form using one of the integrated plugins with a redirect URL parameter set to an external domain (e.g., ?redirect=https://attacker.com). Observe whether the application allows redirection to the external domain instead of restricting to internal URLs only.
    Affected if The application redirects to arbitrary external domains when a redirect parameter is provided, indicating insufficient URL validation
  4. Inspect redirect validation code
    If you have access to the plugin source code, examine the file handling redirect logic (typically in includes/ or classes/ directory). Look for functions that process the redirect parameter and check whether they validate that the URL starts with the site domain or is a relative path.
    Affected if The code passes user-supplied redirect parameters directly to wp_redirect() or similar functions without validating the URL domain or restricting to internal paths

You are affected if the CRM Perks plugin version is below 1.2.9 AND you have any of the HubSpot, Contact Form 7, WPForms, Elementor, or Ninja Forms integrations enabled with redirect functionality that allows external URLs.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 1.2.9 or later
Fixed in 1.2.9
Interim mitigation

Upgrade to a patched version beyond 1.2.8. If no patch is available, implement server-side validation of redirect URLs to ensure they only allow trusted internal domains or relative paths, and avoid passing user-controlled input directly to redirect functions.

Recommended fix High confidence
