"value": "The Paid Videochat Turnkey Site \u2013 HTML5 PPV Live Webcams plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 7.3.20. This is due to videowhisper_register_form() function not restricting user roles that can be set during registration. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to create posts/pages with the registration form and administrator set as the role and subsequently use that form to register an administrator account. This can also be exploited by contributors, but is far less likely to be successful because an administrator would need to approve the form with the administrator role for the attack to be successful."

"value": "El plugin Paid Videochat Turnkey Site \u2013 HTML5 PPV Live Webcams para WordPress es vulnerable a la escalada de privilegios en todas las versiones hasta la 7.3.20, inclusive. Esto se debe a que la funci\u00f3n videowhisper_register_form() no restringe los roles de usuario que se pueden establecer durante el registro. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel de Autor y superior, creen publicaciones/p\u00e1ginas con el formulario de registro y el administrador establecido como rol, y posteriormente utilicen ese formulario para registrar una cuenta de administrador. Esto tambi\u00e9n puede ser explotado por colaboradores, pero es mucho menos probable que tenga \u00e9xito porque un administrador necesitar\u00eda aprobar el formulario con el rol de administrador para que el ataque sea exitoso."

Nomenclature
- Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
- Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
- Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
- Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
- Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.

Sightings and recorded dates, grouped by day · UTC
How durations are calculated
Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.
Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
