CVE-2026-4394 | Gravity Forms <= 2.9.30 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Credit Card 'Card Type' Sub-Field

The Gravity Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Credit Card field's 'Card Type' sub-field (`input_<id>.4`) in all versions up to, and including, 2.9.30. This is due to the `get_value_entry_detail()` method in the `GF_Field_CreditCard` class outputting the card type value without escaping, combined with `get_value_save_entry()` accepting and storing unsanitized user input for the `input_<id>.4` parameter. The Card Type field is not rendered on the frontend form (it is normally derived from the card number), but the backend submission parser blindly accepts it if included in the POST request. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute when an administrator views the form entry in the WordPress dashboard.

Attack vector (AV:N)
Could be attacked over the internet or any normal routed network—not just someone sitting at the machine.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:N)
No account or special rights needed—anonymous or random user is enough.

A real person has to do something—click, install, enable—otherwise it doesn’t land.
Scope (S:C)
Breaking this can reach past the original component and bite other resources—bigger blast radius.
Confidentiality (C:L)
Some sensitive info could get out, but not a total data dump.
Integrity (I:L)
Attackers could change some data, but it’s limited—not everything goes.
