2FA Vulnerabilities in Grav Login Plugin Allow Account Takeover
Article Content
- •Two critical vulnerabilities in Grav Login plugin affect versions 2.7.0 to 3.9.8.
- •Attackers can exploit these flaws to bypass 2FA and take over accounts.
- •No patches are currently available; users should restrict access until fixes are released.
Two vulnerabilities have been identified in the Grav Login plugin (versions 2.7.0 to 3.9.8) that compromise front-end two-factor authentication (2FA). The first vulnerability allows an attacker to update user profiles while the second factor is pending, potentially removing 2FA requirements and enabling account takeover. The second vulnerability permits the creation of a remember-me cookie before completing the second factor, allowing unauthorized access. Both issues stem from improper session authorization checks during the login process. Static code reviews confirmed the vulnerabilities, but no patches are currently available. Users are advised to monitor for updates and restrict access until a fix is released.
