Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Paytium: Mollie payment forms & donations plugin for WordPress versions prior to 5.0.4
Description
A privilege escalation issue exists where unauthenticated attackers can register a new WordPress account with administrator privileges. The flaw occurs because the
pt cf checkout meta() function, registered on the pt meta values hook, copies $ POST['pt form field'][*] keys into the payment meta array without signature verification. This allows the pt-user-role value to overwrite signed data, which is then processed by the paytium user data processing() function and passed as the role argument to wp insert user(). Exploitation requires submitting a payment via a publicly-exposed [paytium] shortcode form and completing the payment flow.Recommendations
Update the plugin to version 5.0.4 or later.
