WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Paid Memberships Pro < 2.12.9 - Contributor+ Arbitrary User Custom Field Disclosure

Description

The plugin does not prevent user with at least the contributor role from leaking other users' sensitive metadata.

Proof of Concept

As a contributor,
- Add shortcode to any post and specify/guess any user ID and meta key and save
- Preview the post and see custom field value outputs from any user

Example shortcode: `[pmpro_member user_id="ANY_USER_ID" field="ANY_META_KEY"]`

Affects Plugins

Fixed in 2.12.9
