Attack profile from CVSS 3.1 · CISA ADP. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-200.
Summary
The Easy Hide Login WordPress plugin before 1.7 does not fully enforce its hidden-login protection, allowing an unauthenticated attacker to reach the standard login page through certain password-reset request parameters and to recover the site's configured secret login slug from the returned page, defeating the Easy Hide Login WordPress plugin before 1.7's core protection.
