Assigner: Wordfence

Description
The FindAll Listing plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.5. This is due to the 'findall_listing_user_registration_additional_params' function not restricting what user roles a user can register with. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to supply the 'administrator' role during registration and gain administrator access to the site. Note: The vulnerability can only be exploited if the FindAll Membership plugin is also activated, because user registration is in that plugin.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability exists in the FindAll Listing plugin for WordPress (up to version 1.0.5) and allows unauthenticated attackers to escalate their privileges. Specifically, the function 'findall_listing_user_registration_additional_params' does not restrict the user roles that can be assigned during registration. As a result, an attacker can register with the 'administrator' role and gain full administrator access to the site. Exploitation requires that the FindAll Membership plugin is also activated, as it handles user registration.

Impact Analysis

If exploited, this vulnerability allows an attacker to gain administrator-level access to your WordPress site without authentication. This means the attacker can fully control the site, including modifying content, installing malicious code, stealing sensitive data, or disrupting site operations. The impact is critical, affecting confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the site.
