CVE-2024-7617 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Contact Form to Any API plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 1.2.4. The issue arises from insufficient sanitization and escaping of input fields in Contact Form 7 forms, enabling unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts. These scripts execute in the context of users who access the injected pages, potentially leading to session hijacking or other script-based attacks. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.2, indicating high severity with network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, and impacts confidentiality and integrity with no availability impact. No patch or vendor advisory is currently provided, and it is not a cloud service.

Successful exploitation allows unauthenticated attackers to inject and execute arbitrary scripts in the context of users visiting the affected pages, potentially compromising user confidentiality and integrity. There is no impact on availability. No known exploits have been reported in the wild.

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, users should consider disabling or restricting use of the Contact Form to Any API plugin, especially the Contact Form 7 integration, to prevent exploitation. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply patches promptly once available.
