An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-25056 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-2021-25056/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25056/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-25056","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25056/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-25056","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-v8vg-mxf6-5vgh"],"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":"high_privilege","summary":"High-privilege users can inject malicious scripts via unsanitized field labels in Ninja Forms, potentially leading to code execution or account takeover.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"ninja_forms","vendor":"ninjaforms"}],"cvss":{"score":4.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/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 Contact Form WordPress plugin before 3.6.10 does not sanitise and escape field labels, allowing high privilege users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed.","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":"Ninja Forms \u003c 3.6.10 - Admin+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-25056","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ninjaforms:ninja_forms","products":["ninjaforms:ninja_forms"],"type":"xss","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Translation Exchange \u003c= 1.0.14 - Authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2021-25057"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"FeedWordPress \u003c 2022.0123 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2021-25055"},"products":["Ninja Forms Contact Form – The Drag and Drop Form Builder for WordPress"],"published":"2022-07-04","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":"2024-08-03","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"High-privilege users can inject malicious scripts via unsanitized field labels in Ninja Forms, potentially leading to code execution or account takeover.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25056/"}
