Summary

The Ultimate Member plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'form_id' parameter in versions up to and including 2.13.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. Unauthenticated attackers can inject scripts that execute when an administrator opens the user record in the wp-admin modal.

Risk Assessment

Risk includes execution of malicious scripts in the admin context, potentially leading to admin panel takeover.

Recommendation

It is recommended to update the Ultimate Member plugin to a version newer than 2.13.1 and restrict access to the admin panel.

Original NVD description (English source)

The Ultimate Member – User Profile, Registration, Login, Member Directory, Content Restriction & Membership Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'form_id' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.13.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The injected payload is stored in the registering user's 'submitted' usermeta via update_user_meta() and is only triggered when an administrator opens the affected user record in the wp-admin Users modal, which inserts the unescaped output via jQuery .html().
