Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-8594 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ninjaforms Ninja Forms. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8594/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8594/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-8594","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8594/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-8594","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r659-m5mg-23ch"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Stored XSS in Ninja Forms allows attackers to inject malicious scripts via specific configuration fields, potentially compromising user sessions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"ninja_forms","vendor":"ninjaforms"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"The Ninja Forms plugin 3.4.22 for WordPress has Multiple Stored XSS vulnerabilities via ninja_forms[recaptcha_site_key], ninja_forms[recaptcha_secret_key], ninja_forms[recaptcha_lang], or ninja_forms[date_format].","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8594","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ninjaforms:ninja_forms","products":["ninjaforms:ninja_forms"],"type":"xss","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8595"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8592"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2020-02-14","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Ninja-forms \u003c 3.11.1 - Unauthenticated PHP Objection","id":"CVE-2025-9083","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-09-18"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1209","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-05-14"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20981","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in Ninja Forms","id":"CVE-2024-25572","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-04-11"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Ninja Forms \u003c 3.4.34 - Authenticated SendWP Plugin Installation and Client Secret Key Disclosure","id":"CVE-2021-24163","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-04-05"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-16308","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-09-01"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"WordPress Ninja Forms plugin \u003c= 3.6.25 - Contributor+ Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-38386","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-19"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Stored XSS in Ninja Forms allows attackers to inject malicious scripts via specific configuration fields, potentially compromising user sessions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8594/"}
