Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Contact Form 7 Captcha WordPress plugin versions prior to 0.1.2

Description The issue arises from the failure to escape the REQUEST URI parameter before outputting it back in an attribute, potentially leading to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting in older web browsers.

Recommendations For versions prior to 0.1.2, update to version 0.1.2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to attributes that use the REQUEST URI parameter until a patch is applied.
