AI-suggested
Users should monitor the BuddhaThemes vendor advisory for updates and apply any official patches once released. Until a patch is available, consider disabling or removing the Lizza LMS Pro plugin to prevent exploitation. Restricting user registration or implementing additional access controls may reduce risk but will not fully mitigate the vulnerability.
Description
The Lizza LMS Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.3. This is due to the 'lizza_lms_pro_register_user_front_end' 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.
