Descriptions

The Crypto plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authentication bypass in versions up to, and including, 2.15. This is due a to limited arbitrary method call to 'crypto_connect_ajax_process::log_in' function in the 'crypto_connect_ajax_process' function. 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.

El complemento Crypto para WordPress es vulnerable a la omisión de autenticación en versiones hasta la 2.15 incluida. Esto se debe a una llamada de método arbitrario limitada a la función 'crypto_connect_ajax_process::log_in' en la función 'crypto_connect_ajax_process'. Esto hace posible que atacantes no autenticados inicien sesión como cualquier usuario existente en el sitio, como un administrador, si tienen acceso al nombre de usuario.

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.
