Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Paid Membership Subscriptions – Effortless Memberships, Recurring Payments & Content Restriction plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.13.7

Description The issue is due to the pms pb payment redirect link function using the user-controlled value supplied via the pms payment id parameter to authenticate users without any further identity validation. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers with knowledge of a valid payment ID to log in as any user who has made a purchase on the targeted site.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 2.13.7, consider disabling the pms pb payment redirect link function until a patch is available to prevent exploitation. Restrict access to the pms payment id parameter to minimize the risk of unauthorized access. Update to a version later than 2.13.7 when available.
