Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WPGYM - Wordpress Gym Management System plugin versions up to, and including, 67.1.0

Description The issue is related to a missing capability check on the MJ gmgt add staff member() function, which allows authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access and above to create new user accounts with the administrator role. This enables privilege escalation.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 67.1.0, update to a version that includes a fix for the missing capability check on the MJ gmgt add staff member() function. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the MJ gmgt add staff member() function to prevent unauthorized creation of administrator accounts.
