The Capella | Restaurant WordPress theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation in all versions up to, and including, 2.5.5. This is due to insufficient restriction on the capabilities a user may grant themselves.
This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to elevate their privileges beyond those intended for their role.
