The Essential Addons for Elementor WordPress plugin before 6.7.2 does not prevent user-supplied registration fields from overwriting reserved account attributes, allowing unauthenticated attackers to register an account with an arbitrary role, including administrator, on sites where a custom profile field with a particular label has been configured.
Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).
