Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WordPress & WooCommerce Affiliate Program plugin versions up to, and including, 8.4.1

Description The WordPress & WooCommerce Affiliate Program plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authentication bypass due to the rtwwwap login request callback() function not properly validating a user's identity prior to authenticating them to the site. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as any user, including administrators, granted they have access to the administrator's email.

Recommendations For WordPress & WooCommerce Affiliate Program plugin versions up to, and including, 8.4.1, update to a version later than 8.4.1 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to sensitive areas of the site to minimize the risk of exploitation.
