Description
The Bravis User plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.1. This is due to the plugin not properly logging a user in with the data that was previously verified through the facebook_ajax_login_callback(). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as administrative users, as long as they have an existing account on the site, and access to the administrative user's email.

AI Analysis

Impact

The Bravis User WordPress plugin allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass login authentication because the plugin fails to record a user session after processing a Facebook login callback. Based on the description, it is inferred that the attack vector is the publicly accessible Facebook login callback endpoint, which accepts the attacker‑supplied authentication data without proper session establishment. Once an attacker provides the email address of an existing administrative account, the callback accepts the authentication data and grants administrative privileges without enforcing a fresh session. This results in a full account takeover that could compromise site content, user data, and configuration.

Affected Systems

WordPress sites that have installed the Bravis User plugin version 1.0.1 or earlier are affected. The vulnerability is specific to the Bravis-Themes packaging of the Bravis User plugin and does not impact newer releases beyond 1.0.1.

Risk and Exploitability

The flaw has a CVSS score of 8.1, indicating high severity, but the EPSS score is below 1% and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, suggesting current exploitation likelihood is low. Nonetheless, the attack requires knowledge of an administrative email address and agreement to a social login, which can be obtained through phishing or data leaks. Once those prerequisites are met, an attacker can remotely gain full administrative control of the site.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Bravis User plugin to the latest release that addresses the authentication logic flaw.
  • If an upgrade cannot be performed immediately, disable the Facebook login feature or enforce a re‑authentication step before granting admin privileges.
  • Implement multi‑factor authentication for all administrative accounts and enforce strong, unique passwords to reduce the risk of credential compromise.
