The Piotnet Forms WordPress plugin through 1.0.30 does not authenticate or validate a form-submission file-upload request and permits browser-renderable file types to be stored, allowing unauthenticated attackers to store a file that executes arbitrary JavaScript in the site's origin when it is opened (Stored XSS).
