AI-suggested

Update the WP Remote Users Sync plugin to version 2.2.1 or later, where this privilege management vulnerability is fixed. No other mitigation is required once the plugin is updated.

Description

A vulnerability in the WP Remote Users Sync WordPress plugin before version 2.2.1 allows a site with shared synchronization keys to assign the administrator role, modify any existing user account, and write arbitrary user metadata. This occurs because the plugin does not restrict which account fields a synchronized site may set when creating or updating users, bypassing role and metadata restrictions on the receiving site.
