Deeper analysis
The ARMember Premium plugin for WordPress is affected by a SQL injection vulnerability in all versions through 7.3.1. The flaw exists in the arm_get_directory_members function, which handles the arm_directory_paging_action AJAX action without sufficient escaping or parameterization of the user-supplied order and orderby parameters, allowing arbitrary SQL to be appended to existing queries.
Unauthenticated remote attackers can exploit the issue over the network by sending crafted AJAX requests. Successful exploitation yields direct read access to sensitive information stored in the WordPress database, corresponding to the observed CVSS 7.5 rating that emphasizes confidentiality impact without requiring authentication or user interaction.
Public references point to the vendor listing on CodeCanyon and a detailed entry from Wordfence, though no specific patch version, workaround, or mitigation guidance is supplied in the available data. The associated EPSS score has remained flat at 0.2446 with no material increase after disclosure.
