Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The Secufor_OAuth plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized access in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.7. This is due to the plugin not properly verifying that a user is authorized to perform an action. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to disconnect the WordPress site from its linked Secufor account by clearing the plugin's stored login token and user login configuration.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The Secufor_OAuth WordPress plugin lacks proper authorization checks on an action that disconnects the site from its Secufor OAuth account. Unauthenticated attackers can directly invoke this action to clear stored login tokens and user login configuration, effectively severing the OAuth connection without any credentials.

MitigationUpdate the plugin to the latest version once available, or implement proper capability checks and nonce validation on the disconnection function to verify user authorization before allowing token/configuration changes.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify Secufor_OAuth plugin installation
    Check the WordPress plugins directory for the Secufor_OAuth plugin folder, or query the wp_plugins database table for the plugin name
    Affected if The plugin is installed and active in WordPress
  2. Locate the OAuth disconnection handler
    Search plugin files for functions that handle OAuth disconnection or token clearing, typically named with terms like disconnect, logout, unlink, or remove connection
    Affected if A disconnection handler function exists in the plugin code
  3. Inspect disconnection function for authorization checks
    Examine the disconnection handler code for capability checks (current_user_can), nonce validation (check_ajax_referer or wp_verify_nonce), or any current_user check before executing the disconnect action
    Affected if The function lacks capability checks, nonce validation, or user authentication verification before clearing tokens
  4. Test unauthenticated access to disconnection action
    Attempt to invoke the disconnection action via direct URL request (such as wp-admin/admin-ajax.php with appropriate action parameter, or a dedicated disconnect endpoint) without providing authentication credentials
    Affected if The disconnection action executes successfully without requiring authentication
  5. Confirm token configuration clearing occurred
    Check the WordPress options database table or plugin settings for removal of OAuth tokens, user mappings, or connection status flags after triggering the disconnection
    Affected if OAuth tokens and connection configuration are cleared or removed after the action

A user is affected if the Secufor_OAuth plugin is installed and the disconnection function can be triggered without any authentication or authorization verification.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Update the plugin to the latest version once available, or implement proper capability checks and nonce validation on the disconnection function to verify user authorization before allowing token/configuration changes.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Version 1.0.8 or later

  1. 1. Backup your WordPress site before making any changes.
  2. 2. Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins in the WordPress admin dashboard.
  3. 3. Locate the Secufor_OAuth plugin in the list.
  4. 4. If an update is available, click 'Update Now' to update to the latest version (1.0.8 or later).
  5. 5. If no update is visible in the WordPress admin, manually download the latest version from the WordPress Plugin Repository at plugins.trac.wordpress.org and upload it via Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.
  6. 6. After updating, verify the plugin is working correctly and test the Secufor OAuth connection.
