Vulnerability Overview

The Nex-Forms Express WP Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to, and including, 9.1.7 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access 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, or in instances where lower-level users have been granted access to the form builder.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 9.1.8, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')) The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users.
