Upgrade the ProfilePress plugin to version 4.17.6 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed. No other mitigation steps are indicated.

Description

A missing authorization vulnerability in the ProfilePress WordPress plugin before version 4.17.6 allows unauthenticated visitors to sign up for membership plans that administrators have deactivated. This occurs because negative membership plan identifiers are not properly rejected before checking plan activation status, enabling unauthorized role assignment.
