Description
The LC Wizard plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation due to a missing capability check in the ghl-wizard/inc/wp_user.php file in versions 1.2.10 to 1.3.0. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to create new user accounts with the administrator role when the PRO functionality is enabled.
