Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The User Profile Builder – Beautiful User Registration Forms, User Profiles & User Role Editor plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.10.7

Description The issue is related to unauthorized access of data due to a missing capability check on the wppb toolbox usermeta handler function. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above to expose sensitive information within user metadata.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 3.10.7, update to a version that includes a fix for the missing capability check on the wppb toolbox usermeta handler function. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the wppb toolbox usermeta handler function to minimize the risk of exploitation.
