Description
The WP Cerber Security plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to security protection bypass in versions up to, and including 9.3.2, that makes user enumeration possible via the REST API. This is due the plugin not blocking access to the user endpoint when the plugin resides within a subdirectory. This can be used by unauthenticated attackers to gather information about users that can targeted in further attacks.
