MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Execution The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires an authenticated WordPress user account at contributor privilege level or above on the target site. The Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 plugin must be installed, active, and the Range Slider add-on specifically must be in use on at least one published or accessible page or post. The attacker must have the capability to create or edit content that includes the Range Slider widget - this is standard for contributor-level roles in WordPress. Exploitation is limited to installations where the plugin is active and where contributor or higher accounts exist beyond the site owner; tightly controlled single-administrator sites or those with no open registration and no shared authoring present a significantly lower realistic risk. Victims need only visit a page containing the injected widget for the payload to fire - no additional user interaction beyond normal page navigation is required post-injection. |
| Impact | The reported CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.4 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N) rates this as Medium severity. The PR:L metric accurately reflects the contributor-level authentication requirement, which is the primary friction for exploitation - contributor accounts are common in multi-author WordPress sites (blogs, news sites, agencies) and can sometimes be obtained through registration or social engineering. The UI:N assignment is Wordfence's standard practice for stored XSS, treating it as requiring no additional victim interaction beyond normal page visits; this is a common scoring convention but is debated, as some frameworks score UI:R since a victim must browse to the affected page. No EPSS score was provided in the intelligence package; however, the contributor-level access requirement limits automated mass exploitation compared to unauthenticated flaws, suggesting real-world EPSS would likely fall below 0.1. The absence of KEV listing and no reported POC corroborate a lower-than-CVSS urgency in practice. For WordPress sites with open contributor registration or shared authoring environments, risk is meaningfully higher than for tightly controlled single-author deployments. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with a contributor account on a multi-author WordPress site navigates to the page/post editor, inserts a Contact Form 7 block using the Range Slider add-on, and sets the 'data-label' attribute to a crafted JavaScript payload. The malicious content is stored in the database; when any user - including a site administrator - subsequently loads the affected page, the script executes in their browser, enabling the attacker to steal session cookies, forge administrative actions, or redirect victims to phishing infrastructure. No public exploit code is known to exist at time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Aug 07, 2026
Stored Cross-Site Scripting in the Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 WordPress plugin (all versions through 3.5.43) permits authenticated contributors to inject persistent malicious scripts via the Range Slider widget's 'data-label' and 'data-separator' attributes. The Scope:Changed CVSS metric confirms that once injected, the payload executes in the security context of any user who subsequently visits the affected page - including administrators - enabling session hijacking, credential theft, or admin-level action forgery. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
RemediationAI
An upstream fix has been committed to the plugin's WordPress Subversion repository in changeset 3586004 (https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3586004/ultimate-addons-for-contact-form-7/trunk/addons/range-slider/js/range-slider.js); however, the exact released plugin version containing this fix is not independently confirmed from the available intelligence - verify against the WordPress plugin repository and update to the latest available version exceeding 3.5.43. As a compensating control pending update, site administrators can restrict contributor-level access or disable the Range Slider widget feature within the plugin settings, accepting the trade-off of reduced form-builder functionality. Additionally, enabling a Web Application Firewall rule targeting XSS payloads in form widget attribute fields (available through Wordfence or equivalent WAF solutions) can block exploitation attempts without requiring downtime. Review existing pages for unexpected script content in Range Slider widget attributes as part of post-discovery cleanup.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerable component is the Range Slider add-on bundled with the Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 plugin (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:themefic:ultra_addons_for_contact_form_7:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) by Themefic, a WordPress plugin that extends Contact Form 7 with additional UI components. The root cause is CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation - 'Cross-site Scripting'), specifically the stored/persistent variant: user-supplied values for the HTML attributes 'data-label' and 'data-separator' on the Range Slider widget are written to the database and later rendered into page output without adequate sanitization or escaping. The WordPress trac changeset (3586004) targets range-slider.js, suggesting the flaw involves client-side attribute reflection from stored server data rather than pure server-side templating. The Scope:Changed (S:C) metric in the CVSS vector is appropriate: the vulnerable system is the WordPress server/plugin, while the impact materializes in a separate security context - the victim's browser - consistent with standard XSS scope-change scoring.

DescriptionCVE.org
The Ultra Addons for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Range Slider 'data-label' and 'data-separator' attributes in all versions up to, and including, 3.5.43 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
