Advanced Forms for ACF version 1.9.3.8 released

Version 1.9.3.8 is now live for both Advanced Forms and Advanced Forms Pro. This is a security release — we recommend updating as soon as you can.

What’s in this release

1.9.3.8 adds missing authorization and nonce checks to the form import handler, sanitises form titles and descriptions on output as an additional safeguard, and fixes a PHP warning that could appear when saving a form. The most important thing is simply to update — the free version updates through wordpress.org, and Pro licence holders can update from the Plugins screen or download the latest build from the downloads area of their Hookturn account.

Changelog

  • Security: Added missing authorization and nonce checks to the form import handler.
  • Security: Form titles and descriptions are now sanitised on output.
  • Fixed a PHP warning when saving a form.

Thanks to Jakub Herman and the Patchstack team for the responsible disclosure.
