Summary
The Brave Conversion Engine (PRO) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in all versions up to, and including, 0.7.7. This is due to the plugin not properly restricting a claimed identity while authenticating with Facebook. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as other users, including administrators.
