CVE-2024-10284: CE21 Suite <= 2.2.0 - Authentication Bypass
First published: Sat Nov 09 2024(Updated: )
The CE21 Suite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authentication bypass in versions up to, and including, 2.2.0. This is due to hardcoded encryption key in the 'ce21_authentication_phrase' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as any existing user on the site, such as an administrator, if they have access to the email.
