CVE-2023-0708

CVE-2023-0708 is a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting the Metform Elementor Contact Form Builder for WordPress, versions up to and including 3.3.0. Authenticated attackers with contributor-level permissions can inject malicious web scripts into pages by leveraging the 'mf_first_name' shortcode, which echoes unescaped form submissions. While the script is stored in the database, its execution requires user interaction through a crafted link containing a specific form entry ID. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 5.4 (Medium), indicating a network attack vector with low attack complexity, requiring user interaction, and resulting in low impact to confidentiality and integrity. There is no evidence of active exploitation, nor are there publicly available exploit modules in Metasploit, Nuclei, or ExploitDB. Community discussion and media coverage for this CVE are minimal, consistent with a large percentage of reported vulnerabilities.
