Description
The User Registration and Membership plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in versions up to, and including, 4.1.1. This is due to insufficient restrictions on role type in the 'prepare_members_data()' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to create new user accounts with the 'administrator'' role.
