Critical CVSS 9.1
CVE-2026-19714
NVD analysis in progress
The Simple JWT Login WordPress plugin before 3.6.8 does not validate the audience of the Google identity tokens it accepts, allowing unauthenticated users to authenticate as any user whose email address such a token carries, up to and including an administrator. Every site with the Simple JWT Login WordPress plugin before 3.6.8's Google sign-in enabled is affected.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data and modify or destroy data.
- Weakness
- The authentication mechanism can be bypassed, letting an attacker pose as a legitimate user.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
What to doPatch without waiting for the next scheduled cycle. Start with the instances exposed to the internet.
