Cross-site scripting in the Ninja Forms File Uploads Extension for WordPress (versions up to and including 3.3.26) allows unauthenticated remote attackers to inject malicious scripts that execute in the browser of any user who views the affected content. The scope change (S:C) indicates the injected payload runs in the victim's browser context rather than the server, enabling session theft, credential harvesting, or UI redressing against site visitors or administrators. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, though the Patchstack advisory provides sufficient detail for researchers to reproduce the issue.

Unauthenticated Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in Ninja Forms File Uploads Extension <= 3.3.26 versions.
Executive ViewAI
WordPress sites using Ninja Forms File Uploads Extension (versions 3.3.26 and earlier) are vulnerable to attackers who can inject malicious scripts capturing administrator sessions and user credentials. This unauthenticated vulnerability poses an immediate risk to site integrity and user data, with no vendor patch currently available.
Within 24 hours, inventory all WordPress sites running Ninja Forms File Uploads Extension version 3.3.26 or earlier and disable the plugin immediately; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, though technical details are documented. Within 7 days, implement Web Application Firewall rules blocking suspicious file uploads to affected endpoints, deploy Content Security Policy headers to prevent inline script execution, and restrict upload functionality to authenticated users only. Within 30 days, monitor vendor advisories for security patches; if none are released, evaluate migration to alternative, actively-maintained file upload solutions.
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations include: disable Ninja Forms File Uploads Extension immediately, implement Web Application Firewall rules to block malicious file uploads, deploy strict Content Security Policy (CSP) headers restricting inline script execution, restrict file upload functionality to authenticated users only, and enable enhanced logging and alerting on upload endpoints to detect exploitation attempts.
