Authenticated access to unauthorized objects
Published Apr 1, 2020 · Updated Aug 4, 2024
Authorization bypass in the Login by Auth0 plugin before 4.0.0 for WordPress allows remote authenticated users to access an unauthorized object. The published Auth0 and GitHub advisories identify an insecure direct object reference but do not disclose the affected endpoint, object identifier, or incorrect authorization operation. A valid low-privilege account is required; the public record does not identify whether exploitation reads, changes, or deletes data, or interrupts service.
