CVE-2026-15993
CVE-2026-15993 — Form Maker by 10Web <= 1.15.44 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) SQL Injection via '{username}' Placeholder in Dynamic-Choice Field WHERE Clause
The Form Maker by 10Web – Mobile-Friendly Drag & Drop Contact Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to blind SQL Injection via '{username}' Placeholder in Dynamic-Choice Field WHERE Clause in all versions up to, and including, 1.15.44 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. This requires that a form is configured with a DB-backed dynamic choice field whose WHERE template references the {username} placeholder, and the attacker must first set their own display_name to a SQL payload via the standard WordPress profile edit screen before triggering the fm_reload_input AJAX endpoint.

Remediation
The vendor's own words where we have them.
Upgrade Form Maker by 10Web – Mobile-Friendly Drag & Drop Contact Form Builder to a fixed release. Apply vendor patches per advisory and restrict external exposure of the affected component until patched.
First 24 hours
Ordered from the record's own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found.
- Identify exposed assets running affected vendor/product/version combinations.
- Prioritize based on EPSS, PoC availability, and external exposure.
- Search available logs for exploit probes, errors, authentication anomalies, or suspicious child processes matching the vulnerability class.

What this weakness leads to
MITRE's own consequences and mitigations for the weakness class — the authority's wording, not guidance derived from the CVSS vector.
CWE-89 · Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')
- Read Application Data
- Bypass Protection Mechanism
- Modify Application Data
Mitigation: Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid. For example, consider using persistence layers such as Hibernate or Enterprise Java Beans, which can provide significant protection against SQL injection if used properly.

What should defenders know first?
CVE-2026-15993 is Form Maker by 10Web <= 1.15.44 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) SQL Injection via '{username}' Placeholder in Dynamic-Choice Field WHERE Clause, a medium vulnerability affecting Form Maker by 10Web – Mobile-Friendly Drag & Drop Contact Form Builder from 10web. The current evidence does not list it in CISA KEV, and the exploit status is: Active exploitation is not confirmed from current sources for CVE-2026-15993. Public exploit evidence is: 2 public PoC repositories reported; 0 marked weaponized in current dataset. The affected-version evidence is listed in the key facts and affected products tables. Defenders should first verify whether exposed or business-critical assets run those versions, then apply vendor patches or mitigations, restrict reachable attack surface, and preserve logs for detection review. CVSS 5.3 describes technical severity, while EPSS 0% helps estimate near-term exploit likelihood; neither replaces asset context. Unknown fields should remain explicit in tickets, and threat actor, IOC, victimology, or payload claims should not be added unless a cited source supports them. Monitor CISA KEV, vendor advisories, NVD changes, public PoC repositories, and internal telemetry for update triggers.
