Vulnerability Overview

The Paid Membership Plugin, Ecommerce, User Registration Form, Login Form, User Profile & Restrict Content – ProfilePress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin 'reg-number-field' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 4.14.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes.
