CVE-2025-13539
At a glance
CVE-2025-13539 is a critical-severity Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel vulnerability in the FindAll Membership WordPress plugin, affecting versions <= 1.0.4. It carries a CVSS score of 9.8 (reachable over the network; low attack complexity; high confidentiality, integrity, availability impact). Exploitation requires no authentication. The issue is fixed in version 1.1; sites on affected versions should update now. Disclosed November 2025, reported by István Márton.
Vulnerability Overview
The FindAll Membership plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.4. This is due to the plugin not properly logging in a user with the data that was previously verified through the 'findall_membership_check_facebook_user' and the 'findall_membership_check_google_user' functions. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as administrative users, as long as they have an existing account on the site which can easily be created by default through the temp user functionality, and access to the administrative user's email.
Technical Analysis
The vector marks this flaw as remotely reachable over the network, with low attack complexity — no special timing or configuration is needed, and no privileges on the target site, and no interaction from a victim user. A successful exploit has high impact on confidentiality, integrity, availability — full site compromise territory.
CWE-288: Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel
FindAll Membership <= 1.0.4 carries this weakness at findall_membership_check_facebook_user, and reaching it takes a caller who can reach the endpoint. Authentication bypass through an alternate path means the application has a second route to a protected action that skips the checks the primary route performs.
The protection on the main path becomes irrelevant, because the attacker simply uses the route that never asks. For FindAll Membership the fix is 1.1: builds <= 1.0.4 are affected, anything from 1.1 onward is not.
Remediation
Update to version 1.1, or a newer patched version
How does WordSec protect against this?
Because it turns on account access, WordSec's login security is the relevant layer: role-based two-factor, captcha and brute-force limits raise the cost of getting the account this needs. None of that substitutes for the fix: FindAll Membership 1.1 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
