Description
The LatePoint plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass due to insufficient identity verification within the steps__load_step route of the latepoint_route_call AJAX endpoint in all versions up to, and including, 5.1.94. The endpoint reads the client-supplied customer email and related customer fields before invoking the internal login handler without verifying login status, capability checks, or a valid AJAX nonce. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log into any customer’s account.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability in the LatePoint WordPress plugin allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass authentication. It occurs because the plugin's AJAX endpoint steps__load_step does not properly verify the user's identity, login status, capabilities, or a valid AJAX nonce before processing a client-supplied customer email and related fields. As a result, attackers can log into any customer's account without proper authorization.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can allow attackers to gain unauthorized access to any customer's account within the LatePoint plugin. This can lead to unauthorized viewing or manipulation of customer data, potentially compromising sensitive information and undermining the security of the affected WordPress site.
