Unauthenticated Broken Authentication in OAuth Single Sign On - SSO (OAuth Client) <= 7.0.0 versions.
AnalysisAI
Authentication bypass in the miniOrange 'OAuth Single Sign On - SSO (OAuth Client)' WordPress plugin (versions 7.0.0 and earlier) lets an unauthenticated remote attacker defeat the OAuth login flow and authenticate as an arbitrary user, including administrators. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 9.8 with a network, no-privilege, no-interaction vector, and the issue is rooted in improper verification of the identity asserted during single sign-on (CWE-290). At the time of analysis there is no public exploit identified and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV, but the combination of unauthenticated access and full account takeover makes it a high-priority patching target.
Technical ContextAI
The affected component is a WordPress authentication plugin that acts as an OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect client, delegating login to external identity providers (Google, Facebook, EVE Online and other configurable OAuth endpoints) and then mapping the returned identity to a local WordPress account. The CPE 'cpe:2.3:a:miniorange:oauth_single_sign_on_-_sso_(oauth_client)' confirms the vendor is miniOrange and the product is their OAuth client plugin. CWE-290 (Authentication Bypass by Spoofing) indicates the root cause is that the plugin trusts an identity assertion without adequately verifying it - for OAuth clients this class of flaw typically stems from missing or improper validation of the token, signature, issuer, audience, state/nonce, or the binding between the provider response and the local account, allowing a forged or replayed identity to be accepted as genuine.
RemediationAI
Upgrade the miniOrange 'OAuth Single Sign On - SSO (OAuth Client)' plugin to the fixed release published by the vendor for versions above 7.0.0; because the input does not contain an exact patched version number, no vendor-released patch version is independently confirmed here, so verify the current fixed version on the Patchstack advisory (https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/miniorange-login-with-eve-online-google-facebook/vulnerability/wordpress-oauth-single-sign-on-sso-oauth-client-plugin-7-0-0-broken-authentication-vulnerability) and the plugin's WordPress.org page before deploying. If you cannot update immediately, compensating controls include temporarily deactivating the OAuth SSO plugin and reverting affected roles to standard WordPress authentication (trade-off: SSO logins break for legitimate users), restricting access to wp-login.php and the plugin's OAuth callback endpoints via WAF rules or IP allow-listing (trade-off: may block legitimate external IdP redirects), and auditing existing administrator/user accounts and active sessions for unexpected additions or logins in case exploitation has already occurred. Enforce strong MFA on any remaining admin accounts as an additional barrier.
