WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Login Lockdown & Protection < 2.15 - IP Block Bypass

Description

The plugin is vulnerable to IP Block Bypass due to $unblock_key key being insufficiently random allowing unauthenticated users, with access to an administrative user email, to generate valid unblock keys for their IP Address. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to bypass blocks due to invalid login attempts.

Fixed in 2.15
