Abstract
------------------------------------------------------------------------
 It was discovered that Contact Form Manager does not protect against
Cross-Site Request Forgery. This allows an attacker to change arbitrary
Contact Form Manager settings. In addtion, the plugin also fails to
apply proper output encoding, rendering it vulnerable to stored
Cross-Site Scripting.
