Summary
The NEX-Forms plugin for WordPress, a forms-building add-on, is affected by a flaw that lets unauthenticated visitors store malicious scripts through a request parameter. When any user, including site administrators, opens a page containing the injected content, the script runs in their browser, which could allow session hijacking, unauthorized actions, or content tampering.

The NEX-Forms – Ultimate Forms Plugin for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'type' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 9.3.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
