What fixes it

A fixed version on one release line is not the upgrade target for every line. Check your exact version and any vendor backports.

Description

The HIPAA Forms WordPress plugin before 3.3.2 does not perform a capability check when handling a request that rebuilds its own custom user role, allowing a user who already holds that role to grant it administrator-level capabilities and escalate their privileges.
