Advisory
Source description from Wordfence Intelligence.
The Social Share, Social Login and Social Comments plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authorization bypass due to a missing capability check on the 'the_champ_user_auth' AJAX action in versions up to, and including, 7.10.6. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as any user, assuming they know their email address.
