Summary

The Paid Membership Plugin for WordPress before version 4.15.15 contains a vulnerability that fails to properly sanitize and escape certain fields within its Drag & Drop Builder. This oversight can enable high-privileged users, such as administrators, to execute Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks, even in configurations where the unfiltered_html capability is restricted, such as multisite setups. Exploiting this vulnerability could compromise the security of the entire site, making it critical for users to update to the latest version to protect against potential attacks.
