Attackers actively exploit auth-bypass flaws in miniOrange SSO plugin for WordPress
Security researchers say hackers are exploiting two chained vulnerabilities, CVE-2026-61979 and CVE-2026-15981, in the miniOrange SAML 2.0 Single Sign On plugin to forge SAML responses and log into WordPress sites as administrators. The plugin, made by Xecurify, lets sites authenticate through identity providers like Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, Google Workspace or OneLogin, and comes in a free version plus six paid editions used by roughly 30,000 customers.
