AI-suggested
Users of the WP-Members Membership Plugin should upgrade to version 3.4.9.3 or later, where the vulnerability is fully patched. The partial fix in version 3.4.9.2 does not fully mitigate the issue. No other mitigations are indicated by the vendor advisory. Patch status is confirmed by the plugin version history and advisory details.
Description
The WP-Members Membership Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the X-Forwarded-For header in all versions up to, and including, 3.4.9.2 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 which is the edit users page. This vulnerability was partially patched in version 3.4.9.2, and was fully patched in 3.4.9.3.
