id: CVE-2024-6289

info:
  name: WPS Hide Login < 1.9.16.4 - Hidden Login Page Disclosure
  author: s4e-io
  severity: medium
  description: |
    The WPS Hide Login WordPress plugin before 1.9.16.4 does not prevent redirects to the login page via the auth_redirect WordPress function, allowing an unauthenticated visitor to access the hidden login page.
  impact: |
    Unauthenticated attackers can discover and access the hidden WordPress login page by exploiting improper redirect handling, defeating the security-by-obscurity measure.
  remediation: |
    Update WPS Hide Login plugin to version 1.9.16.4 or later to address the login page disclosure vulnerability.
