UserPro for WordPress Authentication Bypass Vulnerability
Description

The UserPro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to authentication bypass in versions up to, and including, 5.1.1.

This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to log in as any existing user on the site, such as an administrator, if they have access to the email. An attacker can leverage CVE-2023-2448 and CVE-2023-2446 to get the user's email address to successfully exploit this vulnerability.
