Vulnerability CVE-2023-0695
Published: 2023-06-09
| Description: |
The Metform Elementor Contact Form Builder for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting by using the 'mf' shortcode to echo unescaped form submissions in versions up to, and including, 3.3.0. This allows authenticated attackers, with contributor-level permissions or above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute when the victim visits a specific link. Note that getting the JavaScript to execute still requires user interaction as the victim must visit a crafted link with the form entry id, but the script itself is stored in the site database. |
Type:
CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting'))
