CVE-2021-24654

This could allow any authenticated user, such as subscriber, to perform Stored Cross-Site attacks when their profile is viewed

MEDIUM 5.4EPSS 0.62%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.62%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

The User Registration WordPress plugin before 2.0.2 does not properly sanitise the user_registration_profile_pic_url value when submitted directly via the user_registration_update_profile_details AJAX action. This could allow any authenticated user, such as subscriber, to perform Stored Cross-Site attacks when their profile is viewed
