## What is CVE-2026-11881?

CVE-2026-11881 is a medium-severity cross-site scripting vulnerability in Unknown Fluent Forms, published on 30 Jul 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

### Official description

The Fluent Forms  WordPress plugin before 6.2.6 does not sanitise and escape one of its form field configuration settings before outputting it inside an inline script when a form is rendered, which could allow users with a role as low as Contributor (with delegated form-management permission, and therefore lacking the unfiltered_html capability, e.g. in a multisite setup) to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks that execute in the browser of any visitor who loads the form, including administrators previewing it.

Weakness: CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation)
