CWE-1078

Weakness Prohibited

Inappropriate Source Code Style or Formatting

Abstraction: Class · Status: Incomplete

The source code does not follow desired style or formatting for indentation, white space, comments, etc.

Mapping guidance

This entry is primarily a quality issue with no direct security implications.

Look for weaknesses that are focused specifically on insecure behaviors that have more direct security implications.

Automated Static Analysis

Automated static analysis, commonly referred to as Static Application Security Testing (SAST), can find some instances of this weakness by analyzing source code (or binary/compiled code) without having to execute it. Typically, this is done by building a model of data flow and control flow, then searching for potentially-vulnerable patterns that connect "sources" (origins of input) with "sinks" (destinations where the data interacts with external components, a lower layer such as the OS, etc.)

Effectiveness: High

Automated Static Analysis - Source Code

An Integrated Development Environment (IDE) or linter can report or highlight this weakness.

Title
Form-Maker (twb_form-maker) <= 1.15.21 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to Limited Code Execution via Execute
Summary
The Form Maker by 10Web – Mobile-Friendly Drag & Drop Contact Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.15.21. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the 'execute' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary methods in the 'BoosterController' class via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
