Vulnerability Description
The UsersWP – Front-end login form, User Registration, User Profile & Members Directory plugin for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's shortcode(s) in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes.
