The Formidable Forms – Contact Form Plugin, Survey, Quiz, Payment, Calculator Form & Custom Form Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to POST-Based Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the Custom HTML Form parameters in all versions up to, and including, 6.16.1.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.
