## Technical details

The User Registration Stripe plugin for WordPress (versions <= 1.3.12) suffers from a broken access control vulnerability categorized as missing authorization (CWE-862). The flaw exists because the plugin fails to properly validate permissions or implement nonce checks on certain functions, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to execute privileged actions. An attacker can exploit this over the network without any user interaction to potentially modify registration data or bypass payment requirements. The issue is resolved in version 1.3.13.
