This flaw allows an attacker to inject malicious code that will execute in the browser of any visitor who loads the affected survey content. The vulnerability is classified as CWE‑79 and enables arbitrary client‑side code execution within the context of the website.

Affected Systems

WordPress sites that use the devsoftbaltic SurveyJS plugin with a version equal to or lower than 1.12.20 are affected. This includes all installations where the surveyjs plugin is present and can render stored survey questions or responses.

Risk and Exploitability
