CVE-2025-5123: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in a3rev Contact Us Page – Contact People
The Contact Us Page – Contact People plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘style’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.7.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.

AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The Contact Us Page – Contact People plugin for WordPress suffers from a stored XSS vulnerability due to improper neutralization of input in the 'style' parameter. Authenticated attackers with Contributor-level privileges can inject arbitrary JavaScript that executes in the context of users viewing the affected pages. This vulnerability impacts all plugin versions up to 3.7.4. The CVSS 3.1 vector indicates network attack vector, low attack complexity, required privileges at the low level, no user interaction needed, and a scope change with low confidentiality and integrity impact but no availability impact.
Potential Impact
An attacker with Contributor-level access can inject persistent malicious scripts into pages via the vulnerable 'style' parameter. This can lead to unauthorized actions performed in the context of other users viewing the injected page, potentially compromising user data confidentiality and integrity. There is no impact on system availability. No known active exploitation has been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict Contributor-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or removing the vulnerable plugin to prevent exploitation.
