The Truelysell Core plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in versions less than, or equal to, 1.8.7. This is due to insufficient validation of the user_role parameter during user registration. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to create accounts with elevated privileges, including administrator access.
