CVE-2024-8246

The Post Form – Registration Form – Profile Form for User Profiles – Frontend Content Forms for User Submissions (UGC) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.11. This is due to plugin not properly restricting what users have access to set the default role on registration forms. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to create a registration form with a custom role that allows them to register as administrators.

Summary
  • (es) El complemento Post Form – Registration Form – Profile Form for User Profiles – Frontend Content Forms for User Submissions (UGC) para WordPress es vulnerable a la escalada de privilegios en todas las versiones hasta la 2.8.11 incluida. Esto se debe a que el complemento no restringe adecuadamente el acceso de los usuarios para establecer el rol predeterminado en los formularios de registro. Esto permite que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel de colaborador y superior, creen un formulario de registro con un rol personalizado que les permite registrarse como administradores.
