CVE-2015-4010 – Cross-site Request Forgery & Cross-site Scripting in Encrypted Contact Form WordPress Plugin v1.0.4
The forms in the admin area of the plugin are vulnerable to CSRF, via which the contact forms generated are susceptible to XSS via unsanitized POST parametre. For example, the admin function of updating an existing form can be done via CSRF. Hence, by submitting a crafted HTML string in the parametres via CSRF, a XSS attack gets launched which affects all the visitors of the page(s) containing the contact form.
Mitigation:
Update the plugin to the latest version (v1.1) to fix the vulnerability.
