CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Lifecycle Timeline
2Description
The Frontend Admin by DynamiApps plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 3.28.25. This is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied role values in the 'validate_value', 'pre_update_value', and 'get_fields_display' functions. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register as administrators and gain complete control of the site, granted they can access a user registration form containing a Role field.
Analysis
Frontend Admin by DynamiApps WordPress plugin (through 3.28.25) allows unauthenticated privilege escalation to administrator via insufficient role validation. Attackers can register as admins and take full control of the site.
Technical Context
The validate_value, pre_update_value, and get_fields_display functions do not properly validate user-supplied role values (CWE-269). An attacker can specify 'administrator' as their role during registration, bypassing the intended role restrictions.
Affected Products
Frontend Admin by DynamiApps through 3.28.25
Remediation
Update the plugin immediately. Audit user accounts for unauthorized admin registrations. Enforce role whitelist on registration forms.
