An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-18331 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: strategy11team Formidable Forms – WordPress Form Builder for Contact Forms, Calculators, Quizzes \u0026 More. 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-2026-18331/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18331/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-18331","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18331/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-18331","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hjj8-x8wc-9cj2"],"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":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can inject arbitrary scripts via the frm_user_id parameter, leading to code execution and potential account takeover when administrators view affected pages.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Wordfence","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/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 Formidable Forms – WordPress Form Builder for Contact Forms, Calculators, Quizzes \u0026 More plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'frm_user_id' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 6.33.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.

By forging frm_user_id to match an administrator's user ID — discoverable via the public WordPress REST API — an unauthenticated attacker causes wp_kses_post() to serve as the only output filter, which preserves the injected payload structurally intact; the plugin's admin JavaScript then decodes and executes it automatically on page load.","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":"Formidable Forms \u003c= 6.33.1 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'frm_user_id' Parameter","id":"CVE-2026-18331","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":9,"next":{"headline":"Server-side request forgery in Kirki – Freeform Page Builder, Website Builder \u0026 Customizer","id":"CVE-2026-18335"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Hardcoded Shared RSA-1024 Private Key in Web Login in TP-Link RE305 and Archer C7","id":"CVE-2026-18330"},"products":["Formidable Forms – WordPress Form Builder for Contact Forms, Calculators, Quizzes \u0026 More"],"published":"2026-08-26","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-26","vendors":["strategy11team"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can inject arbitrary scripts via the frm_user_id parameter, leading to code execution and potential account takeover when administrators view affected pages.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18331/"}
