A vulnerability has been discovered in the cformsII plugin for
WordPress, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting attacks.
Input passed to the "rs" parameter in
wp-content/plugins/cforms/lib_ajax.php is not properly sanitised
before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute
arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context
of an affected site.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 13.1. Prior versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 13.2.
