WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

WP User Frontend < 3.5.26 - SQL Injection to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting

Description

The plugin does not validate and escape the status parameter before using it in a SQL statement in the Subscribers dashboard, leading to an SQL injection. Due to the lack of sanitisation and escaping, this could also lead to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting
