CVE-2026-14204: Unknown Google Authenticator

Medium severity, CVSS 6.5. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The Google Authenticator WordPress plugin before 0.56 does not verify a CSRF nonce when saving its two-factor setup, allowing attackers to trick a logged-in user into overwriting their own 2FA secret with an attacker-controlled value, which enables two-factor authentication and locks the victim out of their account.
