Vulnerability Overview

The Calculated Fields Form plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via admin settings in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.40 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 1.2.41, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-87 (Improper Neutralization of Alternate XSS Syntax) The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controlled input for alternate script syntax.
