Bestweblayout · Contact Form To Db By Bestwebsoft – Messages Database Plugin For Wordpress · CVE-2026-13359
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Contact Form to DB by BestWebSoft – Messages Database Plugin For WordPress versions prior to 1.7.6
**Description**
Insufficient input sanitization and output escaping allow unauthenticated attackers to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), a technique where malicious scripts are permanently stored on the target server. By submitting a contact form, an attacker can inject arbitrary web scripts via the `cntctfrm contact dropdown` parameter. These scripts execute within the context of an administrator's browser session when they access the message manager page at the '/wp-admin/admin.php?page=cntctfrmtdb manager' endpoint, potentially leading to the compromise of administrator-level sessions.
**Recommendations**
Update the plugin to version 1.7.6 or later.
As a temporary mitigation, restrict access to the '/wp-admin/admin.php?page=cntctfrmtdb manager' endpoint or avoid using the `cntctfrm contact dropdown` parameter until the update is applied.
