Descriptions

The Ultimate Addons for Contact Form 7 WordPress plugin before 3.1.29 does not sanitise and escape some of its settings, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup)

The Ultimate Addons for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via admin settings like the 'Redirect URL' field in versions up to, and including, 3.1.28 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.
