Summary

The Easy Hide Login WordPress plugin before 1.7 does not fully enforce its hidden-login protection. This allows an unauthenticated attacker to reach the standard login page through certain password-reset request parameters and to recover the site's configured secret login slug from the returned page, defeating the plugin's core protection.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can bypass the plugin's core protection and learn the secret login URL, facilitating brute-force and targeted attacks on the login panel. This weakens the entire login-hiding strategy.

Recommendation

Update the Easy Hide Login plugin to version 1.7 or later. Additionally, implement extra login protections such as rate limiting and two-factor authentication.
