Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The Form Maker by 10Web plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 1.15.35. This is due to the plugin's default file upload allowlist including SVG files combined with weak substring-based extension validation. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to upload malicious SVG files containing JavaScript code that will execute when viewed by administrators or site visitors via file upload fields in forms granted they can submit forms.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The Form Maker by 10Web plugin for WordPress allows file uploads through form fields with SVG files enabled by default in the allowlist. The extension validation uses weak substring matching that can be bypassed, enabling unauthenticated attackers to upload malicious SVG files containing JavaScript payloads. When administrators or site visitors view these uploaded files, the embedded JavaScript executes, leading to stored XSS.

MitigationDisable SVG file uploads in the plugin settings or implement strict MIME type validation and server-side file content analysis to block malicious SVG uploads until a patched version is available.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify Form Maker by 10Web plugin is installed
    Navigate to WordPress admin > Plugins and confirm Form Maker by 10Web is active
    Affected if Plugin is installed and active in WordPress
  2. Check the installed plugin version
    In WordPress admin > Plugins > Form Maker by 10Web > View Details, note the version number and compare against any official vulnerability advisory
    Affected if Version is unknown, unpatched, or within an affected range
  3. Confirm SVG file uploads are enabled in plugin settings
    Go to Form Maker > Settings > General > File Upload Options and check if SVG appears in the allowed extensions or allowlist
    Affected if SVG extension is present in the allowed file types list
  4. Inspect uploaded SVG files for malicious content
    Examine files in wp-content/uploads/form-maker/ (or similar upload directories used by the plugin) and review SVG files for embedded <script> tags, onload, onerror, or other JavaScript event handlers
    Affected if SVG files containing executable JavaScript are present in upload directories
  5. Review form configurations for file upload fields
    In Form Maker > Manager > select each form > Edit Form > Fields, identify any file upload fields and verify their allowed extensions settings
    Affected if Any file upload field allows SVG file type

A user is affected if the Form Maker by 10Web plugin is active with SVG uploads enabled in settings and malicious SVG files exist in the upload directory, allowing stored XSS execution.

Mitigation

Disable SVG file uploads in the plugin settings or implement strict MIME type validation and server-side file content analysis to block malicious SVG uploads until a patched version is available.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence
