Description

WordPress Plugin Fast Secure Contact Form is prone to a remote code execution vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input. Successful exploitation may allow attackers to execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the user running the application, to compromise the application or the underlying database, to access or modify data or to compromise a vulnerable system. WordPress Plugin Fast Secure Contact Form version 4.0.44 is vulnerable; prior versions may also be affected.

Remediation

Update to plugin version 4.0.45 or latest
