CVE-2024-9930
The Extensions by HocWP Team plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authentication bypass in versions up to, and including, 0.2.3.2. This is due to missing validation on the user being supplied in the 'verify_email' action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as any existing user on the site, such as an administrator. The vulnerability is in the Account extension.

🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1190Exploit Public-Facing Applicationinitial access95 % - Impacto principal
T1078Valid Accountsstealth · persistence · privilege escalation · initial access95 % - Impacto secundario
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation75 %
AV:N, PR:N, UI:N → explotación remota sin autenticación (T1190). Bypass de autenticación permite login como admin → acceso de cuenta (T1078) e implícitamente escalada de privilegios (T1068).
