Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects Unknown Forms. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 0.38%, higher than 30% of scored CVEs.

The Forms WordPress plugin before 3.0.2 does not sanitise submitted form values on storage, nor escape them before outputting them on the form submissions screen in the administration dashboard, allowing unauthenticated users to inject arbitrary web scripts that will execute in the browser of any administrator viewing the submissions.
