BitForm – Data management solution for WordPress # CVE-2026-8891

CVE, Research URL

CVE-2026-8891

Date
May 27, 2026
Research Description
The BitForm plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'bitform' shortcode in versions up to, and including, 1.1.0. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied shortcode attributes ('width' and 'height') in the Shortcode::shortcode() function, which are interpolated directly into the 'style' attribute of an <iframe> element. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
Affected versions
max 1.1.0.
Status
vulnerable
