LowCVSS 3.7Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk8th percentile - higher than 8% of all known CVEs
Summary
The User Registration & Membership WordPress plugin before 5.2.8 does not verify that the visitor requesting its membership confirmation page owns the account named in the request, nor that any registration or purchase has taken place, allowing unauthenticated users to retrieve another user's email address, profile fields, role and membership order details. Exploitation requires the site owner to have added a user smart tag to that page's configurable message, which the shipped default does not contain.
Risk Assessment
An unauthenticated attacker can disclose other users' personal data and order details, constituting a confidentiality breach and potentially enabling further social engineering attacks.
Recommendation
Upgrade the User Registration & Membership plugin to version 5.2.8 or later; if that is not possible, remove the user smart tag from the configurable message on the confirmation page.
