Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Job Listings plugin for WordPress versions 0.1 through 0.1.1
Description
The Job Listings plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation due to improper authorization within the
register action() function. The plugin’s registration handler reads the client-supplied $ POST['user role'] and passes it directly to wp insert user() without restricting to a safe set of roles. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to elevate their privileges to that of an administrator.Recommendations
For versions 0.1 through 0.1.1, consider disabling the
register action() function until a patch is available. Restrict access to the wp insert user() function to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the user role parameter in the affected registration handler until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.LPE
