WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

All In One WP Security & Firewall < 5.0.8 - IP Spoofing

Description

The plugin is susceptible to IP Spoofing attacks, which can lead to bypassed security features (like IP blocks, rate limiting, brute force protection, and more).

Proof of Concept

Set HTTP_X_REAL_IP or HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR used in get_user_ip_address() to bypass IP-based blocks.
