CVE-2025-6895 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. The Melapress Login Security plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Authentication Bypass due to missing authorization within the get_valid_user_based_on_token() function in versions 2.1.0 to 2.1.1. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers who know an arbitrary user meta value to bypass authentication checks and log in as that user.. EPSS estimates a 0.64% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
