DescriptionCVE.org

The Ninja Forms - Scheduled Exports plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via REST API Parameters (interval, format, emailTo) in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level privileges and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The REST endpoint is registered without a permission_callback and only validates a nonce without checking user capabilities.

AnalysisAI

Stored cross-site scripting in the Ninja Forms - Scheduled Exports WordPress plugin (all versions through 3.0.3) allows any authenticated subscriber-level user to inject persistent malicious scripts via the REST API parameters interval, format, and emailTo, which then execute in the browsers of any user who visits the affected page. The root cause is a REST endpoint registered without a permission_callback that relies solely on nonce validation rather than WordPress capability checks, meaning the lowest default user role can reach it. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires: (1) an authenticated WordPress user account at subscriber level or above - the lowest default role, assigned automatically on open-registration sites; (2) the Ninja Forms - Scheduled Exports plugin to be installed and active on the target site at version 3.0.3 or earlier; (3) a victim user (typically an admin) to visit a page that renders the stored export configuration containing the injected payload. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The provided CVSS 6.4 (Medium) vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N reflects network-accessible exploitation at low privilege with scope change into victim browsers. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
