CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe Temporary Login Without Password WordPress plugin prior to version 1.9.9 allows temporary users to create and retain Application Passwords even after their temporary access is revoked, enabling continued access to the site via REST and XML-RPC. This vulnerability poses a significant risk, as it can grant unauthorized users persistent administrative privileges, undermining site security. WordPress administrators utilizing this plugin should prioritize updating to the latest version to mitigate potential exploitation.
Original NVD Description
The Temporary Login Without Password WordPress plugin before 1.9.9 does not prevent a temporary user from creating an Application Password, and does not revoke one when the temporary access expires or is disabled, allowing the recipient of a temporary login to retain working access to the site over REST and XML-RPC after the administrator believes it has been withdrawn. The retained access carries whatever role was granted, which for the Temporary Login Without Password WordPress plugin before 1.9.9's main use case is Administrator.
