CVE-2026-12761Network attack vector

Administrator account takeover via crackable OTP hash

Published Jul 10, 2026 · Updated Jul 10, 2026

Authentication bypass in miniOrange Social Login and Register 7.7.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to take over administrator accounts. The Profile Completion flow trusts email_field without binding it to the OAuth identity, while send_otp_token() exposes a SHA-512 hash of a static key and low-entropy OTP. Exploitation requires access to that flow but no WordPress account or user interaction, and the recovered OTP authenticates the supplied email owner.
