AI-suggested
Users should immediately review their use of the Basel Post Types plugin and consider disabling it until a fix is released. Ensure WooCommerce and Basel social-login providers are not configured or active to reduce exposure. Monitor vendor advisories for updates and apply official patches once available.
Description
The Basel Post Types plugin for WordPress contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in all versions up to and including 1.18. This flaw arises from a coding error that causes a static, publicly visible salt to be used for authentication, allowing attackers to forge valid authentication callbacks. Exploitation requires WooCommerce and a configured Basel social-login provider. Successful exploitation enables attackers to authenticate as any WordPress user without password or multi-factor authentication checks.
