Until an official fix is available, users should consider disabling or limiting use of the affected plugin versions. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply patches promptly once released.

Description

Forminator Forms plugin for WordPress versions up to and including 1.56.1 contains a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts via a forged upload record in a select field, due to improper input sanitization and output escaping. The vulnerability arises because certain input keys bypass filtering and a submitted internal flag is trusted without validation. Exploited scripts execute when users access affected pages.
