{"id":"CVE-2026-96228","published":"2026-10-29T04:18:45.110","lastModified":"2026-10-29T04:18:45.110","description":"SSL Wireless SMS Notification for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass in all versions up to, and including, 3.8.1. The public final_login_ajax_action handler resolves a user and issues an authenticated session by matching the wp_sslcare_otp table on only the attacker-supplied phone and cap_data, without verifying the SMS OTP or any server-side single-use state. Because cap_data was chosen by the attacker in the public otp_login_ajax_action step (which stores the row before sending the SMS), the finalize step trivially matches and the user is looked up solely by the sslcare_login_phone meta. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers who know a phone-linked user's number to take over that account.","cvssScore":8.1,"cvssSeverity":"HIGH","cvssVector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","cwes":["CWE-287"],"vendors":[],"products":[],"references":[{"url":"https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/ssl-wireless-sms-notification/tags/3.8.1/sslWireless.php","tags":[]},{"url":"https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/8e4947d5-91f3-4b36-b309-7c52c483be3d?source=cve","tags":[]},{"url":"https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/wordpress-plugins/ssl-wireless-sms-notification/ssl-wireless-sms-notification-360-unauthenticated-privilege-escalation","tags":[]}],"exploitRefs":[],"hasPoc":false,"ai":null}
