Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-96326 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability (CWE-79) in the HT Contact Form – Drag & Drop Form Builder for WordPress plugin.

This vulnerability affects all plugin versions from 0 up to and including 2.10.2.

Potential Impact

An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to inject malicious scripts that execute in the context of users viewing the affected pages. This can lead to information disclosure and integrity impacts, such as theft of user credentials or session tokens.
