CVE-2023-34001
The Hide My WP Ghost plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to CAPTCHA Bypass in versions up to, and including, 5.0.25. This is due a logic flaw within the brute_math_authenticate function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to bypass CAPTCHA by omitting the `brute_ck` parameter from the authentication request.
