AI-Generated

The MetForm plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to inadequate input sanitization and output escaping in the 'mf_form_id' Widget Setting, affecting all versions up to 4.1.8. Authenticated attackers with contributor-level access can inject malicious scripts that execute when users access the compromised pages, bypassing security filters. WordPress site administrators using this plugin should prioritize patching to mitigate the risk of exploitation.

Original NVD Description

The MetForm – Contact Form, Survey, Quiz, & Custom Form Builder for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'mf_form_id' Widget Setting in all versions up to, and including, 4.1.8 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The payload bypasses Elementor's save-time wp_kses_post filter because it contains no HTML tags, and MetForm's own str_replace transformation of script tags into JavaScript template literal expressions provides an additional delivery path.
