MemberGlut < 1.1.5 - Unauthenticated Privilege Escalation to Administrator
Publisher and source text is retained separately from QFinch interpretation.
QFinch assessment
The MemberGlut WordPress plugin before 1.1.5 does not validate the role chosen during front-end registration, allowing unauthenticated users to register an account with an arbitrary role, including administrator, leading to full site compromise.
