What is CVE-2024-12034?

The Advanced Google reCAPTCHA plugin for WordPress is prone to a security flaw that allows unauthenticated users to unblock their IP addresses after being temporarily locked out due to multiple failed login attempts. This occurs because the plugin fails to implement a strong, unique key for the unblock requests, posing a significant risk to the integrity of the website's security measures. As a result, attackers might exploit this vulnerability to bypass security restrictions and gain repeated access to protected areas of the site.
