Descriptions

The Contact Form 7 Connector WordPress plugin before 1.2.3 does not sanitise and escape a parameter before outputting it back in the page, leading to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting which could be used against administrators.

El complemento de WordPress Contact Form 7 Connector anterior a 1.2.3 no sanitiza ni escapa un parámetro antes de devolverlo a la página, lo que genera cross site scripting reflejado que podría usarse contra los administradores.

The Contact Form 7 Connector plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.2. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on various functions. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute JavaScript in a victims browser via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
