## Affected

- Unknown Hide My WP Ghost: fixed in 7.0.11

## Description

The Hide My WP Ghost WordPress plugin before 7.0.11 does not properly validate a loopback security-check request before disabling its login and URL hiding protection, dropping that protection precisely when the request's verification value is missing or incorrect, which any visitor can arrange, allowing unauthenticated attackers to re-expose the concealed WordPress login page location.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on Unknown Hide My WP Ghost, upgrade to a fixed version (7.0.11) per the references below.
