Last modified
CVE-2026-1247 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 4.4/10 on the CVSS scale. The Survey plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via admin settings in all versions up to, and including, 1.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.

EPSS estimates a 0.24% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
