Published Sep 2, 2024 · Updated Sep 3, 2024
Reflected XSS in the Flaming Forms WordPress plugin 1.0.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute script in an administrator's browser. The submissions page writes the Page query parameter into its HTML response without sanitization or output escaping.
