Technical details
The LoginPress Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to an authentication bypass in the Spotify Social Login addon due to improper identity verification in the loginpress_on_spotify_login() function. The plugin retrieves the 'email' field from Spotify's /v1/me endpoint and uses it to identify and authenticate a WordPress user via get_user_by() without verifying that the email address has been validated by Spotify. Since Spotify allows unverified emails in user profiles, an unauthenticated attacker can register a Spotify account using a target's email address (such as an administrator's) and successfully log in to the WordPress site. The vulnerability is present in versions up to and including 6.2.3.
