Descriptions

The Paid Memberships Pro WordPress plugin before 2.9.12 does not prevent subscribers from rendering shortcodes that concatenate attributes directly into an SQL query.

The Paid Memberships Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'membership' shortcode in versions up to, and including, 2.9.11 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access, and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
