Technical details

The plugin fails to properly sanitize and escape user input in the first name field when the Email Confirmation feature is enabled, allowing stored XSS injection. An unauthenticated attacker can craft malicious JavaScript in the first name field during registration, which persists in the database and executes in victims' browsers when they access pages displaying the injected profile data. The vulnerability exists in the email confirmation feature's handling of the first name field.
