AI-suggested
Upgrade the User Frontend WordPress plugin to version 4.3.12 or later, where this issue is fixed. Until patched, consider disabling the plugin or restricting access to account creation functionality if possible.
Description
The User Frontend WordPress plugin versions prior to 4.3.12 allow unauthenticated users to create accounts even when site registration is disabled. This occurs because the plugin does not verify if user registration is permitted before account creation. Accounts created this way receive the site's default user role.
