Description

The User Registration & Membership – Custom Registration Form, Login Form, and User Profile plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Insecure Direct Object Reference in all versions up to, and including, 4.1.3 via the user_registration_update_profile_details() due to missing validation on the 'user_id' user controlled key. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update other user's passwords, if they have access to the user ID and email.
