The WholesaleX WordPress plugin prior to version 3.0.9 exhibits a flaw wherein it fails to validate that a stored account confirmation code exists before performing a match with the supplied code. This vulnerability permits unauthorized users to activate pending accounts, effectively circumventing the administrator's approval process and allowing immediate access to the system, which could lead to potential unauthorized actions.

Affected Version(s)

WholesaleX 0 < 3.0.9

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)
