See how profilepress compares to other vendors in security performance
The ProfilePress WordPress plugin before 4.17.1 does not strip shortcodes from two of its profile fields before rendering them on public pages, allowing unauthenticated attackers to store shortcodes that are then executed when the page is viewed, disclosing a chosen user's email address, login and registration date.
The Paid Membership Plugin, Ecommerce, User Registration Form, Login Form, User Profile & Restrict Content – ProfilePress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution in all versions up to, and including, 4.16.11. This is due to the plugin allowing user-supplied billing field values from the checkout process to be interpolated into shortcode template strings that are subsequently processed without proper sanitization of shortcode syntax. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary shortcodes by submitting crafted billing field values during the checkout process.
The Paid Membership Plugin, Ecommerce, User Registration Form, Login Form, User Profile & Restrict Content – ProfilePress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload in all versions up to, and including, 4.16.18 via the allowedmimetypes function. This is due to the unconditional registration of an uploadmimes filter that adds executable file extensions (.exe, .apk, .msi) to the global WordPress MIME allowlist, without scoping the expansion to digital-product upload contexts. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to upload files that may be executable, which makes remote code execution possible. This filter is registered globally on every request regardless of whether the digital products feature is configured or in use, meaning the expanded MIME allowlist affects all WordPress upload contexts site-wide.
