Descriptions

Incorrect Privilege Assignment vulnerability in themexpo RS-Members allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects RS-Members: from n/a through 1.0.3.

The RS-Members plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to privilege escalation in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.3. This is due to the plugin not properly restricting what roles a user can be assigned to. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to escalate their privileges to that of an administrator.
