Description

The Paid Membership Plugin, Ecommerce, User Registration Form, Login Form, User Profile & Restrict Content plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure via member directory filters in all versions up to, and including, 4.17.5. Directory queries accepted arbitrary user meta keys and arbitrary role values as filters instead of only the filters the administrator enabled. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to enumerate the values of private user meta fields by probing filter results. They can also list users with roles outside the directory's configured roles.
