DescriptionCVE.org

The Add User Autocomplete WordPress plugin before 1.2 does not perform any capability or nonce check before creating a pending site-membership invitation carrying a caller-supplied role, allowing any authenticated user, such as a subscriber, to grant themselves the administrator role on a multisite installation.

AnalysisAI

Privilege escalation in the Add User Autocomplete WordPress plugin before 1.2 allows any authenticated user - including subscribers - to self-assign the administrator role on a WordPress multisite installation by submitting a crafted site-membership invitation request with an attacker-controlled role parameter. The plugin performs no capability check (no current_user_can()) and no nonce validation before accepting and creating the invitation, making the attack trivial for any account holder. …
