What is CVE-2017-20192?
The Formidable Form Builder plugin for WordPress contains a vulnerability that permits Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks via multiple parameters during form submissions, including 'after_html'. This flaw arises due to inadequate input sanitization and output escaping practices in versions earlier than 2.05.03. As a result, unauthenticated attackers can exploit this weakness to inject malicious web scripts, which may execute in the browsers of affected users, leading to potential data breaches and other security risks.
