The endpoint is registered as wp_ajax_nopriv_{provider}-signup with a nonce that is emitted on the public login page. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to elevate their privileges to Administrator by creating a new user with an attacker-chosen role, provided a social-login provider is registered and open registration is enabled." } ], "title": "WPJAM Basic <= 7.1 - Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation to 'data[args][role]' Parameter", "references": [ { "url": "https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/77464287-bbaa-428e-9292-c97c10733adf?source=cve" }, { "url": "https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wpjam-basic/trunk/includes/class-wpjam-core.php#L1313" }, { "url": "https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wpjam-basic/trunk/includes/class-wpjam-core.php#L1302" }, { "url": "https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wpjam-basic/trunk/includes/class-wpjam-core.php#L1155" }, { "url": "https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wpjam-basic/trunk/includes/class-wpjam-core.php#L1396" }, { "url": "https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpjam-basic/" } ], "problemTypes": [ { "descriptions": [ { "lang": "en", "description": "CWE-269 Improper Privilege Management", "cweId": "CWE-269", "type": "CWE" } ] } ], "metrics": [ { "cvssV3_1": { "version": "3.1", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "baseScore": 8.1, "baseSeverity": "HIGH" } } ], "credits": [ { "lang": "en", "type": "finder", "value": "nudien" } ], "timeline": [ { "time": "2026-10-01T15:35:58.000Z", "lang": "en", "value": "Vendor Notified" }, { "time": "2026-11-06T21:20:42.000Z", "lang": "en", "value": "Disclosed" } ] } } }
