Ninja Forms WordPress plugin XSS actively exploited
- Engineer — Act: Active exploitation of stored XSS in Ninja Forms and WPC Product Bundles for WooCommerce is resulting in backdoor installation and rogue admin account creation — update both plugins to their latest patched versions immediately and audit existing WordPress admin accounts for unauthorized entries.
- SOC/IR — Act: Active exploitation with post-compromise persistence (backdoors and rogue admins) means assume-breach review is warranted; sweep WordPress admin user tables for accounts created after plugin install dates and hunt for unexpected file modifications in plugin directories.
