Vulnerability Overview

The DocCheck Login plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized post access in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.5. This is due to plugin redirecting a user to login on a password protected post after the page has loaded. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to read posts they should not have access to.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 1.1.6, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-284 (Improper Access Control) The product does not restrict or incorrectly restricts access to a resource from an unauthorized actor.
