27 Feb 2025 — The DHVC Form plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.7. This is due to the plugin allowing a user to supply the 'role' field when registering. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to register as an administrator on sites. • https://codecanyon.net/item/dhvc-form-wordpress-form-for-visual-composer/8326593 • CWE-266: Incorrect Privilege Assignment •
