- Severity: no CVSS score reported
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 2.4.3
- Published: 2022-05-30 · Updated: 2024-08-02

## Affected

- Unknown User Meta – User Profile Builder and User management plugin: from 2.4.3, fixed in 2.4.3

## Description

The User Meta WordPress plugin before 2.4.3 does not sanitise and escape the Form Name, as well as Shared Field Labels before outputting them in the admin dashboard when editing a form, which could allow high privilege users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when unfiltered_html is disallowed
