CVE-2026-103427 Details
Description
The Simple Membership plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'country' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.8.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Unauthenticated attackers may also exploit this vulnerability when the plugin's Enable Free Membership feature is turned on, as it permits anonymous front-end registration and profile submission.
A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in the Simple Membership plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions through 4.8.4. The issue arises from inadequate input sanitization and output escaping, allowing authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access or higher to inject arbitrary scripts into pages. These scripts execute when a user accesses the compromised page. Additionally, if the 'Enable Free Membership' feature is activated, unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability by submitting malicious scripts during anonymous registration or profile updates.
Users are advised to update the Simple Membership plugin to version 4.8.5 or a newer patched version.
