VULNERABILITY  
Two XSS vulnerabilities have been discovered in Ninja Forms WordPress plugin which can be exploited against administrators of WordPress (with the vulnerable plugin) to perform Cross-Site Scripting  
1) Reflected XSS  
The issue was found in the success notification message that the Ninja Forms plugin displays in users’ browser after users submit their details successfully through the plugin contact form. Anonymous attackers could use the vulnerability to take control of the victim’s browser or steal other users' sessions and so access their personal details.

[ ]

2)Stored XSS  
This issue was exploited when administrator users with access to the Ninja Forms submissions list attempt to edit the user submitted values. A malicious administration can hijack other users’ session, take control of another administrator’s browser or install malware on their computer.  
Proof of concept:  
POST http://www.example.com/wp-admin/post.php   
fields[1]=<b+onmouseover=alert('XSS!')>TEST</b>
