Advisory
Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to Francesco Carlucci.
The Contact Form Entries plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to CSV Injection in versions up to, and including, 1.2.9 when outputting to a CSV file. This allows low-level attackers to embed untrusted input contact forms that will be present in exported CSV files, which can result in code execution when these files are downloaded and opened on a local system with a vulnerable configuration.
