DescriptionCVE.org

Unauthenticated Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in Everest Forms <= 3.4.8 versions.

AnalysisAI

Reflected cross-site scripting in the Everest Forms WordPress plugin (versions 3.4.8 and earlier) lets an unauthenticated attacker craft a malicious link that, when opened by a victim, executes arbitrary JavaScript in the victim's browser under the affected site's origin. The CVSS:3.1 base score is 7.1 (scope-changed, low impact across C/I/A) and exploitation requires victim user interaction. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV.

Technical ContextAI

Everest Forms is a widely deployed WordPress drag-and-drop contact/form-builder plugin. The issue is CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation), the root-cause class for cross-site scripting. In a reflected XSS, attacker-controlled input supplied via a request parameter is echoed back into the HTTP response without proper output encoding or input sanitization, so the browser parses it as executable markup/script rather than data. Because the plugin runs inside WordPress, the injected script executes in the security context (origin) of the hosting site. The vector's Scope:Changed (S:C) reflects that impact crosses from the vulnerable component into the victim's browser/session context. No CPE string was supplied in the input.

RemediationAI

Upgrade Everest Forms to a fixed release newer than 3.4.8 once published by the vendor; the input data does not include a confirmed fixed version, so verify the exact patched version against the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/everest-forms/vulnerability/wordpress-everest-forms-plugin-3-4-8-reflected-cross-site-scripting-xss-vulnerability?_s_id=cve) and the WordPress.org plugin changelog before deploying. If immediate patching is not possible, deploy a WAF or virtual patch (Patchstack and similar vendors offer XSS rule coverage) to filter payloads on the plugin's request parameters, and set a restrictive Content-Security-Policy header to block untrusted/inline script execution - noting CSP can break legitimate inline scripts and themes and should be rolled out in report-only mode first. Advise privileged users not to click untrusted links targeting the site, since exploitation depends on victim interaction.
