DescriptionCVE.org

The User Verification by PickPlugins WordPress plugin through 2.0.47 does not verify that a request to resend a verification email is authorized to act on the supplied user, nor bind the protecting token to that user, allowing unauthenticated attackers to reset arbitrary users' email-verification status and lock them, including administrators, out of their accounts.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated account lockout in the User Verification by PickPlugins WordPress plugin (through version 2.0.47) enables remote attackers to reset the email-verification status of any WordPress account - including administrators - by exploiting two authorization failures simultaneously: the resend-verification endpoint neither validates that the requestor is authorized to act on the specified user ID, nor binds the protective token to the targeted user. This effectively provides a remote, zero-privilege mechanism to lock any site account out of access. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires only that the User Verification by PickPlugins plugin (version ≤ 2.0.47) is installed and active on a WordPress site, and that the site's email-verification feature is in use (i.e., accounts are subject to verification gating). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) accurately reflects the network-reachable, zero-authentication, low-complexity nature of the attack, with the primary impact being account availability loss. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation The primary remediation is to update the User Verification by PickPlugins plugin to a version beyond 2.0.47; however, no specific patched release version has been confirmed in the available data - monitor the WPScan advisory at https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/4dff3634-4b4f-48e2-a8c9-dda7e2b682fd/ and the plugin's WordPress.org changelog for a patch release. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, immediately disable the User Verification by PickPlugins plugin or implement Web Application Firewall rules blocking POST requests to the resend-verification endpoint if the plugin is operationally critical. …
