AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-75824 is an improper access control vulnerability (CWE-284) in the User Frontend WordPress plugin versions from 2.5.8 up to but not including 4.3.12. The plugin fails to check whether user registration is enabled on the site before allowing account creation. As a result, unauthenticated attackers can create new user accounts on sites that have disabled registration, potentially bypassing intended access restrictions. The created accounts are assigned the default role configured on the site.
Potential Impact
Attackers can create user accounts without authentication on sites that have disabled user registration, potentially allowing unauthorized access to site features or content available to default role users. The impact depends on the permissions granted to the default user role on the affected site.
Mitigation Recommendations
Upgrade the User Frontend plugin to version 4.3.12 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. No other mitigation is indicated. Patch status is confirmed by the version range affected and fixed version stated.
