Unauthenticated settings modification via unchecked AJAX handler
Published Jan 28, 2026 · Updated Jan 28, 2026
Missing authorization in Metagauss RegistrationMagic 6.0.7.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to modify plugin settings via an AJAX request. The rm_set_otp handler processes attacker-controlled setting updates without verifying a nonce or checking caller capabilities. No account or user interaction is required; successful exploitation can alter reCAPTCHA keys, security controls, and frontend menu titles.
