Description The issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the pass1 or pass2 parameter in a register action, when "Allow New Registrations to set their own Password" is enabled.

Recommendations For Pie-Register plugin versions prior to 1.31, update to version 1.31 or later to resolve the issue.
