Technical details

The BitForm plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the Shortcode::shortcode() function. Specifically, user-supplied attributes such as 'width' and 'height' within the 'bitform' shortcode are interpolated directly into the 'style' attribute of an <iframe> element. An authenticated attacker with contributor-level permissions or higher can exploit this to inject arbitrary web scripts. These scripts are stored on the server and execute in the context of any user's browser who views the affected page. The vulnerability exists in all versions up to and including 1.1.0.
