Technical details

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in Ninja Forms versions 3.10.4 through 3.14.8. The root cause is a lack of numeric validation in the parseSubmissionIndex() function and a failure to escape output in the admin_form_element() function within the Repeatable Fieldset feature. An unauthenticated attacker can submit a crafted repeater child key containing a script payload via a public form. When an administrator views these submissions in the WordPress admin panel, the payload executes in their browser context. This can lead to session hijacking, unauthorized administrative account creation, or the installation of malicious plugins. The issue is fixed in version 3.14.9.
