Summary

The WP Directory Kit plugin for WordPress in all versions up to and including 1.4.4 is vulnerable to authentication bypass due to incorrect implementation of the authentication algorithm in the "wdk_generate_auto_login_link" function. The token generation mechanism is cryptographically weak, allowing unauthenticated attackers to predict the token and gain administrative access.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can take full control of the WordPress site, leading to complete site takeover, data theft, and the ability to deploy malicious code.

Recommendation

Update the WP Directory Kit plugin to a version later than 1.4.4 or disable it if no update is available, and review logs for unauthorized logins.

Original NVD description (English source)

The WP Directory Kit plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authentication bypass in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.4 due to incorrect implementation of the authentication algorithm in the "wdk_generate_auto_login_link" function. This is due to the feature using a cryptographically weak token generation mechanism. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to gain administrative access and achieve full site takeover via the auto-login endpoint with a predictable token.
