The Knit Pay – Cashfree, Instamojo, Razorpay, PayPal and more plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 9.6.1.0. This is due to the maybeupdateuserrole() function reading the target role directly from an attacker-controlled Gravity Forms entry field — configured via the feed's userrolefieldid — and passing it to WPUser::setrole() without validating the supplied value against an allowlist of permitted roles. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to elevate their privileges to administrator by tampering with the hidden role field value at form submission time. Exploitation is further enabled by the fact that $0 orders are synchronously marked as SUCCESS during form submission without requiring a real payment, and when no GF User Registration user can be resolved, the role assignment target falls back to $lead['createdby'] — the currently authenticated submitter's own user ID — making any authenticated form submitter an eligible exploitation target.
