CVE-2023-6842 is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Formidable Forms WordPress plugin, affecting all versions up to 6.7. It allows authenticated administrators to inject malicious web scripts via form field labels due to insufficient input sanitization. The CVSS score is 4.8 (Medium), indicating a network-based attack with low complexity, requiring high privileges and user interaction, leading to low impact on confidentiality and integrity. While primarily affecting multi-site installations or those with unfiltered_html disabled, extended permissions could allow lower-level users to exploit it. There is currently no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion.
