CVE-2026-84251: click5 CRM add‑on for Ninja Forms lets anyone create admin

CVE-2026-84251 · published 5 days ago
Summary

The click5 CRM add‑on for the Ninja Forms plugin in WordPress (up to version 1.0.1) does not verify who is making changes to its settings. Because of this, anyone on the internet can alter site options and add a new administrator account, giving them full control of the site. Update the add‑on to a newer version that includes proper checks, or remove it if it’s not needed, and keep administrative access limited to trusted users.
