If you cannot patch yet, restrict form-management permissions to trusted users only and avoid granting delegated form-management permissions to Contributor roles.

Description

A stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the Fluent Forms WordPress plugin before version 6.2.6. It arises because one of the form field configuration settings is not properly sanitized or escaped before being output inside an inline script when rendering a form. This flaw allows users with Contributor roles who have delegated form-management permissions (but lack unfiltered_html capability) to inject malicious scripts that execute in the browsers of any visitor loading the form, including administrators previewing it.
