Really Simple SSL, CVE-2024-10924

CVE, Research URL: CVE-2024-10924
Home page URL: Security reports for Really Simple SSL
Application: Really Simple SSL
Published on: Nov 15, 2024
Research Description: The Really Simple Security (Free, Pro, and Pro Multisite) plugins for WordPress are vulnerable to authentication bypass in versions 9.0.0 to 9.1.1.1. This is due to improper user check error handling in the two-factor REST API actions with the 'check_login_and_get_user' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as any existing user on the site, such as an administrator, when the "Two-Factor Authentication" setting is enabled (disabled by default).
Affected versions: Min 9.0.0, max 9.1.1.1.
Status: vulnerable
