CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe miniOrange 2FA plugin for WordPress prior to version 6.3.1 and 19.3 is vulnerable as it fails to properly limit second-factor authentication attempts to individual accounts, allowing attackers to exploit this flaw by making unlimited guesses for one-time passcodes if they already possess the victim's password. This could lead to unauthorized access to user accounts, undermining the effectiveness of two-factor authentication. WordPress site administrators using this plugin should prioritize updating to the latest version to mitigate this security risk.
Original NVD Description
The miniOrange 2FA WordPress plugin before 6.3.1, miniOrange 2FA WordPress plugin before 19.3 does not scope its second-factor attempt limit to the account being attacked, keying it instead to an identifier the client supplies and can change at will, allowing an attacker who already knows a victim's password to make unlimited one-time-passcode guesses and defeat the second factor. A second validation endpoint applies no attempt limit at all.
