The Frontend Login and Registration Blocks plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation via account takeover in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.8. This is due to the plugin not properly validating a user's identity prior to updating a password. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to change arbitrary user's passwords, including administrators, and leverage that to gain access to their account.

El complemento Frontend Login and Registration Blocks para WordPress es vulnerable a la escalada de privilegios mediante el robo de cuentas en todas las versiones hasta la 1.0.7 incluida. Esto se debe a que el complemento no valida correctamente la identidad del usuario antes de actualizar la contraseña. Esto permite que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de suscriptor o superior, cambien las contraseñas de usuarios arbitrarios, incluidos los administradores, y aprovechen esta situación para acceder a sus cuentas.
