High CVSS 8
CVE-2026-11766
The Ultimate Member WordPress plugin before 2.12.0 does not properly sanitise and escape the value of custom textarea profile fields before outputting it on user profiles, allowing authenticated users with Subscriber-level access and above to store JavaScript that executes when any user, including an administrator, views the affected profile.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network and with an ordinary user account — but only if a user opens booby-trapped content.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
