  1. Affected≤ 6.2.3
  2. Patched in6.2.4

Update to 6.2.4 or newer.

You are affected if you run ≤ 6.2.3. Version 6.2.4 and later are not affected by this issue.

  • Check your version: in wp-admin go to Plugins → Installed Plugins and read the version under LoginPress Pro.
  • No admin access? Run a passive check of your site. It reads public files only.
  • No account is needed to exploit this. Treat any exposed site on an affected version as at risk.

What to do

  1. Update to version 6.2.4, or a newer patched version
  2. Rotate administrator passwords and application secrets if the site ran a vulnerable version while publicly reachable.
  3. Watch LoginPress Pro to get an email when the next vulnerability is published.

Advisory

Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to Nguyen Ngoc Duc (duc193).

The LoginPress Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass via Unverified OAuth Email in all versions up to and including 6.2.3. The vulnerability exists in the loginpress_on_discord_login() Discord OAuth callback handler, which accepts the email field returned by Discord's /users/@me endpoint without ever checking that the profile's verified flag is true, then directly maps that email to a local WordPress account via get_user_by('email', $profile['email']) and issues an authenticated session cookie via wp_set_auth_cookie(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to take over any existing WordPress account — including administrator accounts — by registering a Discord account configured with an unverified email address that matches the target user's registered WordPress email and completing the standard Discord OAuth flow.
