Description
The Web3 – Crypto wallet Login and NFT token gating plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authenticated bypass in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.0. This is due to insufficient verification on the 'handle_auth_request' and 'hadle_login_request' functions. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as any user, including an administrator, as long as they have access to the username.
