WordPress vulnerability analysis and mitigation
Overview
The Frontend Login and Registration Blocks plugin for WordPress contains a privilege escalation vulnerability (CVE-2025-3607) that affects all versions up to and including 1.0.7. The vulnerability stems from improper user identity validation during password update operations (NVD CVE).
Technical details
The vulnerability exists due to the plugin's failure to properly validate a user's identity before processing password updates. This security flaw allows authenticated users with Subscriber-level access or higher to modify the passwords of arbitrary users, including administrators. The vulnerability has been assigned a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (HIGH) with the vector string CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H. The weakness has been classified as CWE-620 (Unverified Password Change) (NVD CVE).
Impact
The vulnerability allows authenticated attackers to change the passwords of any user account, including administrator accounts. This can lead to complete account takeover and unauthorized access to administrative functions, potentially compromising the entire WordPress installation (NVD CVE).
Mitigation and workarounds
Site administrators should immediately update the Frontend Login and Registration Blocks plugin to a version newer than 1.0.7 once available. Until a patch is released, it is recommended to disable the plugin or implement additional access controls to prevent unauthorized password changes (NVD CVE).
