Fluent Forms, a widely used WordPress plugin that has been installed more than 500,000 times, is known for its advanced and lightweight contact form builder. With features such as drag-and-drop customization, conditional logic, and anti-spam, it has become a staple for both businesses and developers. However, such popularity also makes it an object for exploitation. The vulnerability associated with the persistence of cross-site scripting (XSS) CVE-2024-9651 in older versions of Fluent Forms pages poses a significant risk, potentially allowing attackers to introduce backdoors and compromise entire websites.
Version 5.2.5 of Fluent Forms has received a plugin Security Certificate (PSC), which guarantees users that this version is verified as secure.
