Descriptions

The Contact Form & Lead Form Elementor Builder WordPress plugin before 1.7.0 does not escape some of its form fields before outputting them in attributes, which could allow high privilege users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed

El complemento de WordPress Contact Form &amp; Lead Form Elementor Builder anterior a 1.7.0 no escapa de algunos de sus campos de formulario antes de mostrarlos en atributos, lo que podría permitir a usuarios con altos privilegios realizar ataques de cross site scripting incluso cuando la capacidad unfiltered_html no está permitida.

The Responsive Contact Form Builder & Lead Generation Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via admin settings in all versions up to 1.7.0 (exclusive) due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.
