WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
WordPress Contact Forms by Cimatti < 1.4.12 - Admin+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting
Description
The plugin does not sanitise and escape the Form Title before outputting it in some admin pages. which could allow high privilege users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html is disallowed.
Proof of Concept
1. go to Forms.
2. go to Add New Form
3. In th title put <script>alert("Ehlo");</script>
4. Save setting and then go to the urls: https://example.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=accua_forms_submissions_list and https://example.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=accua_forms_list
