CVE-2026-12557 | Ninja Forms - File Uploads <= 3.3.29 - Missing Authorization to Unauthenticated Log Disclosure and Deletion via debug-log/delete-all and debug-log/get-all REST Endpoints

The Ninja Forms - File Uploads plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.29. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read all plugin debug log entries stored in the wp_nf3_log table or permanently delete all rows from that table.
