# wpForo Forum plugin: stored script injection through post body parameter

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-120532 (this .md is for agents)

The wpForo Forum plugin for WordPress stores unsanitized input from the post body parameter and outputs it without escaping, in all versions up to and including 3.2.2. An authenticated subscriber can inject scripts that run in the browser of anyone who opens the injected page.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Check the installed wpForo version in the WordPress admin plugin list, or in the plugin's main file header.
- Confirm whether subscriber-level accounts can register or post on the forum.

## From the sources

The wpForo Forum plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'post[body]' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
