CVE-2021-24168

Public Exploit
Easy Contact Form Pro < 1.1.1.9 - Authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)

Description

The Easy Contact Form Pro WordPress plugin before 1.1.1.9 did not properly sanitise the text fields (such as Email Subject, Email Recipient, etc) when creating or editing a form, leading to an authenticated (author+) stored cross-site scripting issue. This could allow medium privilege accounts (such as author and editor) to perform XSS attacks against high privilege ones like administrator.
