SureForms: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption
CVE-2026-19500 is a high-severity uncontrolled resource consumption vulnerability in SureForms, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists version 2.12.3 as the first without the flaw, so updating SureForms to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.58% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Update SureForms to 2.12.3 or a later version.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description
The Entries component in Brainstorm Force SureForms version, less than 2.12.3, does not enforce adequate limits on user-controlled form fields or submitted content during processing and rendering, which allows a remote attacker to exhaust server resources, prevent administrators from accessing the Entries interface, and trigger HTTP 500 errors via crafted form submissions.

The underlying weakness: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption
The product does not properly control the allocation and maintenance of a limited resource.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Ensure that protocols have specific limits of scale placed on them.
- Ensure that all failures in resource allocation place the system into a safe posture.
