Description
WordPress Plugin Membership Simplified is prone to a vulnerability that lets attackers download arbitrary files because the application fails to sufficiently verify user-supplied input. This may allow an attacker to gain access to sensitive information, which may aid in launching further attacks. WordPress Plugin Membership Simplified version Beta 1.58 is vulnerable; prior versions may also be affected.
Remediation
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly verified or disable the plugin until a fix is available
