Technical details

The plugin does not correctly enforce the promote_users capability when assigning roles during CSV import operations, allowing users with only the create_users capability to bypass authorization checks. The vulnerability is triggered during the CSV import process where role assignment is performed without proper permission validation. A user with lower privileges can create new accounts with administrator role or escalate existing accounts, gaining unauthorized administrative access to the WordPress installation.
