WHMCS Authentication Bypass Vulnerability
WHMCS is prone to an authentication-bypass vulnerability because it fails to adequately verify user-supplied input used for cookie-based authentication. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability to gain administrative access to the affected application, which may aid in further attacks.
Mitigation:
Ensure that user-supplied input is properly validated and sanitized before being used for authentication.
