What the vulnerability does
01Description
The WP Front-end login and register plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the email and wpmp_reset_password_token parameters in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.
