A broken access control vulnerability in Metform allows users with contributor-level privileges to access form pages and perform actions beyond their authorization scope. The vulnerability stems from incorrectly configured access control security levels that fail to properly validate user permissions. An authenticated attacker with contributor privileges can view or manipulate form data they should not have access to.
