WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Flo Launch < 2.4.1 - Missing Authentication Allow Full Site Takeover

Description

The plugin injects code into wp-config.php when creating a cloned site, allowing any attacker to initiate a new site install by setting the flo_custom_table_prefix cookie to an arbitrary value.

Proof of Concept

On any website where flo-launch is active create cookie "flo_custom_table_prefix" with any string value to initiate new WordPress instance setup.

Complete setup and login as admin.

Affects Plugins

Fixed in 2.4.1
