Executive Summary

This vulnerability affects the WordPress plugin 'New User Approve' versions 3.1.0 to 3.2.9. It allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass authentication via the Zapier API and access personal data of registered users, including ID, username, email address, and registration date. The issue occurs because the plugin fails to verify authentication on certain integration REST API routes when the integration is unconfigured.

Detection Guidance

Check if the 'New User Approve' WordPress plugin is installed and verify its version. If the version is between 3.1.0 and 3.2.9, the system is vulnerable. Use commands like 'wp plugin list' in WordPress CLI or inspect the plugin files for version details.

Impact Analysis

Unauthenticated attackers can retrieve personal data of registered users, exposing sensitive information like email addresses and usernames. This could lead to privacy breaches, identity theft, or targeted phishing attacks against users.

This vulnerability likely violates GDPR and HIPAA due to unauthorized access and disclosure of personally identifiable information (PII). Organizations using the affected plugin may face legal penalties, fines, and reputational damage for failing to protect user data.

Mitigation Strategies
