CVE-2024-6328: CWE-288 Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel in inspireui MStore API – Create Native Android & iOS Apps On The Cloud
The MStore API – Create Native Android & iOS Apps On The Cloud plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authentication bypass in all versions up to, and including, 4.14.7. This is due to insufficient verification on the 'phone' parameter of the 'firebase_sms_login' and 'firebase_sms_login_v2' functions. 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 address or phone number. Additionally, if a new email address is supplied, a new user account is created with the default role, even if registration is disabled.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The MStore API plugin for WordPress suffers from an authentication bypass vulnerability (CWE-288) due to improper validation of the 'phone' parameter in its SMS login functions. This weakness enables attackers without any privileges to authenticate as any user by leveraging known email addresses or phone numbers. Furthermore, the plugin allows creation of new user accounts with default roles despite registration being disabled, increasing the risk of unauthorized access. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 4.14.7. The CVSS 3.1 score of 9.8 reflects the critical nature of this flaw, impacting confidentiality, integrity, and availability. A patch is available to mitigate this vulnerability.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass authentication controls and log in as any existing user, including administrators, leading to full compromise of the affected WordPress site. Attackers can also create new user accounts with default privileges even if user registration is disabled, potentially enabling persistent unauthorized access. This results in complete loss of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system.
Mitigation Recommendations
A patch is available for this vulnerability. Users of the MStore API plugin should apply the official update to version 4.14.8 or later as soon as possible to remediate the authentication bypass issue. Until patched, restricting access to the plugin's login endpoints and monitoring for suspicious activity may help reduce risk, but patching is the definitive mitigation.
