Impact

An DOM‑Based cross‑site scripting flaw exists in the Smart Forms plugin for WordPress versions up to 2.6.104. The vulnerability arises from improper neutralization of input during web page generation, allowing an attacker to inject client‑side scripts into the application's DOM. When a user accesses the vulnerable form, the injected script executes within the victim’s browser, potentially enabling session hijacking, defacement, or phishing attacks. This weakness is classified as CWE‑79.
