DescriptionNVD

The Frontend Admin by DynamiApps plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthenticated privilege escalation in versions up to and including 3.29.2. This is due to insecure form submission handling that accepts arbitrary form definitions from user input instead of securely loading them from the backend. When $_POST['_acf_form'] is an array (rather than a form ID), the validate_form() function bypasses database lookup and directly processes the attacker-controlled structure. The create_record() function preserves attacker-supplied record data if present, and the user action's run() function falls back to attacker-controlled field definitions from $form['fields'] when legitimate fields cannot be found. The role field's pre_update_value() validation reads $field['role_options'] from this attacker-controlled definition, allowing an attacker to specify ['administrator'] as an allowed role and bypass the security check. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to create administrator accounts by injecting a custom form configuration with a spoofed role field.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated privilege escalation in the Frontend Admin by DynamiApps WordPress plugin (versions up to and including 3.29.2) allows remote attackers to create administrator accounts by submitting a crafted form payload. The flaw stems from the plugin trusting an attacker-supplied form definition passed via $_POST['_acf_form'] as an array, which bypasses the legitimate server-side form lookup and allows the role field's allowed values to be spoofed. …
