CVE-2026-1307
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedThe Ninja Forms - The Contact Form Builder That Grows With You plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 3.14.1 via a callback function for the admin_enqueue_scripts action handler in blocks/bootstrap.php. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to gain access to an authorization token to view form submissions for arbitrary forms, which could potentially contain sensitive information.
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 · high confidenceThe Ninja Forms WordPress plugin up to version 3.14.1 contains a sensitive information exposure vulnerability in the admin_enqueue_scripts action handler in blocks/bootstrap.php. Authenticated users with Contributor-level access or higher can exploit a callback function to obtain an authorization token, enabling them to view form submissions from arbitrary forms that may contain sensitive data.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify Ninja Forms plugin is installedIn WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'Ninja Forms' in the list. Alternatively, check for the /wp-content/plugins/ninja-forms/ directory on the server.Affected if Ninja Forms plugin is present in the WordPress installation
-
Determine installed Ninja Forms versionIn WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins > Ninja Forms and read the version number displayed under the plugin name. Or check the version field in the plugin's main PHP file header.Affected if Version is 3.14.1 or lower (any version up to and including 3.14.1)
-
Confirm vulnerable file existsCheck if the file /wp-content/plugins/ninja-forms/blocks/bootstrap.php exists on the server. Use a file manager or SSH: ls -la /path/to/wp-content/plugins/ninja-forms/blocks/bootstrap.phpAffected if The file blocks/bootstrap.php exists in the Ninja Forms plugin directory
-
Check for Contributor-level or higher user accountsIn WordPress admin, go to Users > All Users and review the Role column. Look for users with Contributor, Author, Editor, or Administrator roles.Affected if Any user account has Contributor-level access or higher (these roles can exploit the flaw)
-
Review access logs for suspicious form submission accessCheck web server access logs (Apache error.log, Nginx access.log, or WordPress activity logs) for unusual GET/POST requests to form submission endpoints, particularly from lower-privileged user accounts.Affected if Logs show form submission data being accessed by users who should not have access to those forms
You are affected if Ninja Forms plugin version 3.14.1 or lower is installed, the blocks/bootstrap.php file exists, and any user with Contributor-level or higher access exists in the WordPress site.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataUpdate the Ninja Forms plugin to a version newer than 3.14.1. Until patched, consider restricting user permissions or monitoring access logs for suspicious form submission access.
