AI-suggested

Until a fix is available, users should consider invalidating all refresh tokens manually if possible or monitor for updates from the plugin vendor. Avoid relying solely on password changes or device removals to revoke access tokens.

Description

The JWT Auth WordPress plugin versions through 3.0.2 have a vulnerability where previously issued refresh tokens are not invalidated when a user changes or resets their password or removes a connected device. This allows an attacker who obtained a refresh token before such an event to continue issuing valid access tokens and maintain authenticated access to the affected account, including accounts with Administrator privileges.
