Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Choose User Role at Registration WordPress plugin versions prior to 1.3.3
Description An issue exists where the plugin fails to validate the role requested during registration against the roles predefined by an administrator. This allows unauthenticated users to request any role, including the administrator role, which is then granted upon approval of the request. This issue can be exploited if both the role selection feature and public account registration are enabled.
Recommendations Update to version 1.3.3 or later. As a temporary mitigation, disable the role selection feature or public account registration.
