At a glance

CVE-2024-11087 is a high-severity Improper Authentication vulnerability in the Social Login, Social Sharing by miniOrange WordPress plugin, affecting versions <= 200.3.9. It carries a CVSS score of 8.1 (reachable over the network; high confidentiality, integrity, availability impact). Exploitation requires no authentication. The issue is fixed in version 200.3.10; sites on affected versions should update now. Disclosed March 2025, reported by wesley (wcraft).

Vulnerability Overview

The miniOrange Social Login and Register (Discord, Google, Twitter, LinkedIn) Pro Addon plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authentication bypass in all versions up to, and including, 200.3.9. This is due to insufficient verification on the user being returned by the social login token. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as any existing user on the site, such as an administrator, if they have access to the username and the user does not have an already-existing account for the service returning the token.

Technical Analysis

The vector marks this flaw as remotely reachable over the network, 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-287: Improper Authentication

Reaching this weakness in Social Login, Social Sharing by miniOrange <= 200.3.9 takes a caller who can reach the endpoint. Improper authentication means the mechanism that proves who a caller is can be satisfied without the secret it was supposed to require.

An attacker authenticates as another user — administrators included — without ever knowing a password, so password policies and login rate limits never come into play. For Social Login, Social Sharing by miniOrange the fix is 200.3.10: builds <= 200.3.9 are affected, anything from 200.3.10 onward is not.

Remediation

Update to version 200.3.10, 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: Social Login, Social Sharing by miniOrange 200.3.10 closes this, and updating the plugin is the step that ends it.
