Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Simple Membership WordPress plugin versions prior to 4.7.8
Description
The plugin fails to verify if user creation was successful during the registration process before utilizing the returned value as a user ID to update an account. This flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to overwrite the primary administrator account data, such as the email address, enabling full account takeover via the password reset mechanism.
Recommendations
Update Simple Membership WordPress plugin to version 4.7.8 or later.
