Advisory
Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to Jakub Herman.
The Redirection for Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in versions 2.2.7 through 3.2.10. This is due to missing sanitization of user-supplied form field values before they are substituted into action settings that are subsequently processed by do_shortcode(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary shortcodes registered on the site by injecting shortcode syntax into form field values, and read their output.
