1th percentile - higher than 1% of all known CVEs

Summary

The Newsletter WordPress plugin before 9.3.8 does not generate its email tracking signing key with sufficient entropy and signs its tracking links with an unkeyed hash. This allows an unauthenticated attacker who recovers that key offline to forge tracking links, obtain any subscriber's session token, and read and modify that subscriber's stored personal data.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can hijack subscriber sessions and access their personal data, leading to privacy breaches and potential fraud. This may also compromise data integrity.

Recommendation

Update the Newsletter plugin to version 9.3.8 or later. Ensure the signing key is generated with high entropy and used to sign tracking links.
