CVE-2023-2706OTP Login Woocommerce & Gravity Forms <= 2.2 - Authentication Bypass to Privilege Escalation
High 8.1
In plain English
A high-severity improper authentication in OTP Login & Register Woocommerce from xootix. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 1.7% (higher than 78% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
The OTP Login Woocommerce & Gravity Forms plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authentication bypass. This is due to the fact that when generating OTP codes for users to use in order to login via phone number, the plugin returns these codes in an AJAX response. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to obtain login codes for administrators. This does require an attacker have access to the phone number configured for an account, which can be obtained via social engineering or reconnaissance.
