CVE-2018-11709
wpforo_get_request_uri in wpf-includes/functions.php in the wpForo Forum plugin before 1.4.12 for WordPress allows Unauthenticated Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via the URI.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.55%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
