WordPress vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Overview

The SureForms WordPress plugin versions before 1.9.1 contains a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability that affects users with admin and higher privileges. The vulnerability was discovered by Dmitrii Ignatyev and publicly disclosed on September 2, 2025 (WPScan).

Technical details

The vulnerability exists because the plugin does not properly sanitize and escape certain parameters when outputting them in the page. This allows users with administrative privileges to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks. The vulnerability has been assigned a CVSS score of 3.5 (Low) and is classified under CWE-79: Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) and OWASP Top 10 A7: Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) (WPScan).

Impact

The vulnerability allows authenticated users with admin or higher privileges to inject malicious JavaScript code that executes in other users' browsers when viewing affected pages. This could potentially lead to session hijacking, defacement, or other client-side attacks (WPScan).

Mitigation and workarounds

The vulnerability has been fixed in version 1.9.1 of the SureForms plugin. Users are advised to update to this version or later to mitigate the security risk (WPScan).
